Hi all,
Just bought a 2.5 V6 Omega Caravan model 2000 and want to increase power by simple mod's...!
On sport bikes there is a approx 10 percent increase, in power and torque by just changing air filter, exhaust and tuning injection/carbs.
Do anybody have any recommendations, on simple mods on Omega V6, to increase power and respond with confirmed improvements?

Hi Ron and welcome.  Best mod is to swap the engine for a 3.0  :-X

In all seriousness the Omega panel filter works well and gains are rarely found from expensive aftermarket ones.  Best place for a full discussion is to post again in "General Chat"  :y

Hi Dave
A "Caravan" is an old expression for an Estate, at least I think it is... (was born i the 60's)
Don't you all think that the V6 is quite hard to wake up, to get it revvin and put some HP on the tarmac...?
I would like instant respons as with my bikes (sport and MPV 996cc V2)
Yes, I should probably have bought a 3.0 but this silver Estate is a beauty, with it's dancing shoes (sports 17")...





Just to make fun with my friends, I will remove all Opel badges and put on Cadillac instead...

Cheers
Ron

Hello & Welcome  :y

I know of the Omega Caravan, cos my little fella has a diecast model, which was sold as Omega Caravan  :y

Best Mods are 3.0 cams can be added
Or get a performance chip

Hi and welcome to the fourm!

naa unfortunatly there isnt really anything for tuning the omega. only option would be to upgrade to a 3.0 or 3.2. The 3.0l engine are pritty cheap and can be picked up for under £200.
sideways is the way forward!
