3.2 conversion in to Omega B
« on: 10 July 2009, 23:44:05 »
Anyone on here done a 3.2 swap in to a pre facelift?

What about a 3.2 running throttle bodies and omex?

Got a 1999 2.5 V6 GLS and fancy doing the above swap on it at some point, anyone on here done it yet?

Be easier, esp considering your other threads, to buy the car you want ;)

Changing to a 3.0 (pretty similar power) would be easier.

What g/box would you recommend? Taking in to account I'm going for maximum power! (Don't rule out a turbo / supercharger conversion either!)
