cheers mate, iv put the original filter back on now and it doesnt seem to go in limp mode now so i may be wrong in thinking that it was messing up the mixture or something and putting it in limp mode but it does seem to be better now, the k&n filter wasnt for an omega i just kinda made it fit so it wasnt plugged into the maf, correct me if im wrong but could this possibly be the cause of it going into limp mode

It won't help mate the omega really dosn't like anything other than the GM panel filter. The oil coating on the K and N filters can bugger up the MAF sensor IIRC

Glad i found that out then,as i was stick a k&n panel filter in mine.

There's really no point as the surface area of a Vauxhall filter is just as good if not better. If you want more boy racer noise (induction noise) drill some holes in the bottom of the air box.

Wouldn't that feed the engine with warm air (performance killer)?
