Hi all

In very little time at home I will have my first omega is an omega b 2.2 dti

I have a lotus elise s1, so I'm thinking about you a few updates to get the car a day, what goes on in Spain nobody knows this car.

-First question, the first thing I will do is do a remap to leave in +-150hp Do you have a picture of the power curve of 2.2 dti to remap? Is it reliable with this remap?

-Second question, the series comes with 225/55/16 ", worth spending the money on a mount 235/45/17" tires + 17" wheels or not compensated? And if so ... what measures ET / OFFSET are suitable for this car? what wheels would be compatible in the used market?

-Third question, suspensions of the series felt a bit soft, there is a suspension that works better than standard, but that also is comfortable? (And lower the height of step)

-Fourth question, I think the 2.2 dti come without limited slip differential, limited slip differential which type you could install this transmission? something in the secondary market or aftermarket at a good price?

-Fifth question, I like to brake always go left, there is some heavier car than the brakes can be adapted without problems or have to go to an aftermarket kit

This is what most interest to this day, I hope you can understand more or less all my questions, my English is horrible.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the welcome 

have if I can answer questions, I will not make the car too radical, I just want to make it more fun on back roads.

I'd probably stay with this unit: http://www.autoscout24.es/Details.aspx?id=209227588

If omega was elected that has a chassis that is very noble and back, I think is the ideal complement to the english toy:

dr x, I will try to explain better...

I am asking is whether compensates 235x45 17 "in relation to the 225/55/16" OEM

In the case of the 17 " worth it, wonder if there are any wheel with the same measures that can be put in another model (in the used market) before putting a new, so I wonder what the ET...

Regarding the suspension, then I seemingly 3 models, bilstein, kw and Weitec, what is the 3 suspensions is the sportiest being, at once, the more comfortable? that's the key.

UP

I've been asking about the form and say the bilstein b4 is the ideal replacement to maintain comfort and have a more sporting reactions.

My question is this cushion, b4, can be used with shorter springs like Eibach ? or they limit their travel and we stop with the shock ?

This is my question about the shocks, compared to everything else I'm just as lost, if any guru have put the doubts solution
