Had the Omega Re-Mapped today by a local company and the results are pretty inpressive to be honest and it is so much more responsive and punchier (not that it was not already) and the flat spot it had is no longer evident  Thumbs Up!

From 211 bhp To 242 bhp and torque from 270 nm to      298 nm

Cost £145.00

I very much doubt you got a 31 bhp increase with a re-map on a 3.2, More like 5 or 10 bhp increase  Wink

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Most companies i enquired with said 30-35 Bhp is achievable with ease on this engine...

Rolling road printout time me thinks to see exactly how much of a gain was made but on driving it.... i can tell the difference and thats good enough for me  Cool

Not trying to poo poo you but are you sure the gain you feel isn't just in your head? With those gains for the money I'd be very interested in getting mine done. Have you noticed n increase in fuel consumption since getting it done, bearing in mind you'll probably be planting it for a while!
