@Entwood
If everything 'standard' is good, how much increase would having a 'live' remap give it??
Would it be worth it??

As I siad I bought this as a project, I do want it to look and feel 'unique', perhaps i'll drop a v6 in there instead 
It's a hobby of mine 'customising' cars, as I said I have heavily done the vectra, it's almost a 'show car' but i am bored of it so I wanted something bigger and more of a challenge.

Thanks for reply,
Eventually (hopefully) this car will be remapped, have an induction kit, exhaust, cams done etc as well as being lowered, body kitted, windows tinted, different front grilles, bigger alloys etc. but I was just wondering if there is a 'quick' route to obtain a little more power for the time being.

Hi guys, I have recently purchased a 1999 (pre-facelift) Omega 2.0 16V CD as a project. At the moment i drive a vectra Sri 130 which i have modded quite a bit but wanted a new challenge.
Anyway as my omega is extremely sluggish in comparisson I am wondering if there is any 'short-cuts' to increase its power (i.e 3 pipe mod and panel filter which can be done to veccie etc). I have never worked on the x20xev engine before so all idea's would be appreciated.
It also drives like a boat so suspension needs to be changed soon so again ideas would be appreciated.
One good thing, this car makes my SRI feel like a go-Kart, lol
