tech2 or Similar
« on: 28 April 2010, 10:55:45 »

Hi,

I have a Omega 3.0 Manual, and was wondering what i can do to update the cars internal workings. (i.e ECU, other systems etc.).
(I would like to get more performance and fuel economy)

Can anyone suggest any software and cables i can buy?
and where from? Is it easy to use?
Or can it only be done with Tech2?

Thanks,

Raj

there is nothing you can just plug in to give performance / economy gains sorry.

The ECU is not flashable, so you are looking at swapping the chip, but even that only gives very modest improvements.

Later versions of ecu after w vin/ 98 model year can be flashed with updated software but not in terms of performance gains or economy, sorry mate but a lighter foot is the way to go for those. :y
