Ronnie i actually quite like that, nice paint, decent front splitter, good feedback from the owner. And its in Derby - maybe one of our locals could go view for me with a view to trailering it up here.

AYE RIGHT - Had you all there

decent paint for a park bench
good splitter for a sleigh

apparently 380bhp

only trailering to my house that would be doing is to go into my garage of doom and come out in little pieces.

Appaling

I am almost ashamed to admit it is in the same city as me...  :-[

I just dropped him a message, somehow I don't think he will appreciate it... ;D

Truly nasty me thinks.

And why start a listing when you are going on holiday??

The addition of Vacum and Volt gauges are sure to add value!!

Typical boy racer chaved up machinery in my opinion.

it's the front air dam and the graphics on the side innit?  ;D

correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that front air dam very similar to the one fitted to the Pug 406 in the film "Taxi" (the french one) ????

I assume its got a blower and is way over blown, but even so, that sort of power from a 2.0...

You guys should be ashamed!!  

It is quite obvious that the 380Bhp comes from the tinted windows and blue neon!!

Call yourselves experts! Pah!

It's certainly different.  I thought the seats would have been Burberry though. 8-)

Surely one of you guys must have seen this kicking about, or maybe it only comes out late at night.

That could well be right. In Back to the Future there were neons under the DeLorean and it flew, so perhaps...  ;)

Lets get things in perspective here. 380bhp? Mmmmm Somehow I don't think so. Windy windows in the back still? That's more like it! ;D

What would be the theoretical max power?  200bhp?  Take away 70bhp to push the spoiler through the air.  Result.  One standard Omega.

Unless the cable ties holding the spoiler on are a secret and yet undiscovered aerodynamic 'trick'!

A real head turner aint she?

I think you should buy it AA, just for the engine.
Transplant it into your Omega.....and with the 380bhp....you might even be able to get up 60mph...where the speed limit allows obviously  ;D

no way in the world has that got 380bhp more like 38 with all the crap stuck to it. someone should do the right thing and burn it preferably with the chav in the boot

I love the way the vendor states this creation is not his, he's just selling it for a friend  ;D
I'm glad he pointed out the fact that the car has been modified otherwise I might not have noticed the very subtle and tasteful modifications.

If this car was a horse you'd shoot it to put it out of it's misery  ;D ;D ;D

That's just asking to go bang - 380 bhp out of a 170,000 motor?

if it was really pushin out 380 bhp there would have to be at least one turbo, huge intercooler, courtney cams, nitros etc not just an ecotek valve k+n  and a power boost valve.

Time to settle a few discussions here.

The enigne is not capable of 380 bhp.... unless you...
remove the head,
remove the bottom end,
replace crank and bearing shells, pins etc etc.
Replace pistons, lower compression and use some serious heads bolts and a heck of a head gasket.
Port and gas flow the head, add race cams and high performance valves.
Replace the exhaust manifold with a very expensive custom unit.

Oh and fit a HUGE turbo... and an even bigger intercooler!  ;D

And then there is the transmission/brakes/suspension work...

Or put another way...

A Sierra Cosworth needs quite a bit of work (Stage 3 conversion) to reach 380bhp and that has 200 bhp as standard!
An Omega 2.0 has 136bhp standard... :D


Edit: Someone has actually put a bid in on this!!  :o
I refuse to believe it can be genuine..... if someone buys that, and then registers on here... I'll ban them!  ;D

Dave,

Stage 3 isnt 380bhp ;)  plus the green bosch 803 injectors wouldnt provide the fuel for 380bhp for very long lol.

grey bosch 403's would fuel to 440bhp, but to get over 360bhp on a cosworth requires head work.

i was going to say that the easy way to get 380bhp from a 2.0 Omega is to remove the full engine and replace with a YB from a cossie PMSL
