Hi Guys  im the cat man and back to let you guys know if it hurt the car....NO it didn't... it's still going like a bat out of hell, and im loving it... saving fuel, though to be fair it did cost me a tire, cos coming out of my drive i booted it ( again) and went squealing down the road and tore off a strip of rubber from my tire. Im wondering if the omega has a limited slip diff cos even in the snow or mud i never get one wheel spin,and loose drive, i always get drive to both wheels or enough to pull my self out of the mud. Anyway im diverging or something, the cat mod works just fine, turbo power is on tap at 2000 rpm, and the power available from 2000 to 4250 is usually enough to leave everyone else behind, no need to go screaming up to 5000+   the turbo limits it's self to 2 bars? the pressure guage sweeps up to full power in a couple of seconds then gives a little negative kick as the limiter valve pop's open but the pressure stays up there. then it's time to back off or find another gear to play with.   So have any of you guys tried it yet?  I do however have a big problem with the car today. it would not let me in. i had to unlock the door by key and the infra red key and transmitter are working but i am unable to do a reset or get the reciever ( i popped in a spare one i had) to talk to the cpu and let me drive home.

So i posted a question, if i swap the cpu unit for my spare one will it accept my key ( doing the reset manouver) or will it expect and demand the old key code? I have the old infra red transmitter but have stripped the board for the buttons and battery spring, I can rebuild it but would preferre sticking with my repaired keyfob. the key is working as ive tested it with my phone and i can see the ir pulses. can anyone help? mt topic is posted earlier today

Were the engine management light or the emissions control light flashing whilst you were trying to start the vehicle?
If so then check you still have the immobilizer chips inside your key fob's...

It may be worth starting a new thread regarding this problem.
