MORE SPEEEEEED!!

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

3.0 senators had a restricted top end of 130mph and the 2.5 and 2.6 were less than that.
You havnt stated what mileage yours has done either,you just may have a lazy engine that wont go above the speed you stated,but your not going to be able to do that on a uk road unless you want a ban,speed isnt everything,and so long as you and your family arrive at the destination in tact and alive that should be more important than speed.

Don't know where you got that info from. Ive had one at well above 140mph on many occassions. They were also road tested at the time by various car mags. at around 150mph.

Both of mine were restricted to 130 on my private road and both autos.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Ok you put £40+k into an engine and everything is 1 off custom made would you want everybody to see it,i dont ,sorry

Details of how the bottom end have been strengthened would be interesting, as the v6 bottom end is pretty weak and doesn't take to having much more power than the standard setup being put through it.

[Twintop]

Lots of trials and errors 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Surely you could be a bit more vague than that.

You said you were on your holibobs was it fully laden with suit cases and such bits if so then that would be the problem more than likely. 

Did you remember to disconnect the caravan joking aside a roof box would kill the top end

Both our old 2.5V6 Elites (Estate & Saloon) would easily easily reach an indicated 130 mph, with a feeling that given time and space they would go a bit faster.  I'd still be inclined to look at timing

Agree with dbug.    My old 2.5 Elite Estate would easily reach an indicated 130mph so I do think something is amiss with the OP's engine performance.

In saying that, my old 3.0S Capri went quite well (an indicated 130mph on the flat) but an old chap down the road from me let me have a go in his and it was struggling around 115mph. Mine was just so much more livelier than his. His driving style was errr.........less hurried than mine.   

I agree with the OP, his car should be quicker.

Top speeds are all very well, but I don't think I'd be travelling at those speeds in such an old vehicle. Ok, they were built for it, but a lot of wear and tear has taken it's toll since then. The fastest I have ever driven is 110mph, and I was shitting myself in case a tyre blew out. There's no coming back at that speed in a family saloon.

[Twintop]

I would be shitting myself doing 90 in a daewoo let alone 110 ,but isnt shitting yourself ,you are well known for on here tho

.... The fastest I have ever driven is 110mph, and  ....

Wuss! Just because the car is whatever age it doesn't then mean the tyres are. I saw well over 110mph many times in my Omega & Senators with no problems at all ... certainly no worries at all over a tyre popping.

Got just over 240 km/hr (equivalent to 150mph) in a 3.0 GSi (hired in France) on a German autobahn late one night - going well until a Porsche went by me as if I was standing still!

Fuel filter been changed? Might be a bit clogged for max output. Otherwise multirams.

You seem to know a lot about these things for a newish member.     

C'mon stick some piccys of your beast up!    Don't be shy, no one's going to copy you as the only one wealthy enough to spend £40k on an Omega here is Lord Opti and he'd rather pour money into a rotten TVR or something equally ridiculous!
