It's much, much easier to buy a car that goes as fast as you want the "Omiga" to go.

Please read the manual

Or in this case, the howtoo guides.

OOF has spent not an inconsiderable amount of time puting a shed load of information together so folks can find things out easily.

Take 5 mins and research the forum.  Lots of info to answer your two million questions you have flooded ONE board with.

Omega will never be a sports car, too heavy.  GM have done a decent job with performance, not many gains to be had on a 3.0l v6. Know how to drive, with good rubber, she does go well...

Nah, they think you a bit cheaky so are winding you up.
The honest answer is there are loads of mods for the omega.
Remove the entire induction system up the throttle bodies for extra air flow.
Bin the multy rams, they do bog all anyway.
cherry bombs work wonders.
Injectors of the vxr8.
A turbo each side of the Saab v6
Don't touch the bottom end it will be fine.

For chassis
Cut the springs in half
Weld up the shocks.
Tint the windscreen
Remove the entire interior including drivers seat for lower centre of gravity and save "wait"
Remove dash bulb for air bag fault
Wheel spacers of 30mill, don't need longer wheel bolts it will be fine.

Sorted!  :y
