Omega General Help / Sport mode 3.2

« on: 07 March 2017, 18:42:49 »

When engaging sport mode in an omega should it lock out 4th gear and also down shift as revs drop??

In sport it more eager to accelerate but if i boot it and let off revs comes down a bit then just drop to idle as if in normal mode always thought as comes down should downshift for you...

Also once i hit 50/60 will still drop into fourth if steadyish??

 Anyone lend some insight

« on: 19 December 2016, 21:20:15 »

Anyone on here used Jenveys throttle body kit for v6 ?? or know of anyone who used it. if so how was it ?

on my 3.2 will 2.5/3.0 rocker covers go straight on my later coil on plug head so i can use ignition leads with a proper coil pack (this is for if i go aftermarket management i know cant be done electrically as standard. as mine is coil on plug not dis pack)

anyone fitted stainless 3-1 manifolds and downpipes to their v6 if so any reviews or info on it??


anyone running aftermarket management if so so what are yo running


also whos had the most out of their v6 ?? looking on vectra owners and few other places throttle bodies and exhaust are reckoning around 300bhp+ someone has apparently done it but cant find the car
