for the vectra your probably talking 200 - 240 bhp its basically vectra gsi spec (the gsi has the same engine as the v6 vectra) just with the 3 litre cams in it... the talk of msd this and that is partly right , due to the fact that the gsi's were tuned by msd who were building vauxhalls touring cars at the time. all the guy has done really has been switch the brain over and fit th cams from a 3litre omega... nothing to really write home about.

tbh i dont think it would beat a scoob.....

i don't know the scoobie in question i just noticed it on my usual scan of swapz.... looking for a car for the missus as she's got bored of her vectra sri... and she dont like driving the scoob cos apparently the exhaust gives her a sore head..? lol

Vectra gsi came with 197bhp iirc. Nearly bought a super touring years back.

3 litre cams not give it extra 25 bhp???

Dunno m8, thats just the factory figure. Although I doubt that you would see 260+ with just cams and a remap though on a n/a engine. 25 more than likely, but an extra 60+ or over 30% increase isn't easy to come by.

The GSi came with 3.0 cams as standard, thats partly what boosted the power over the 'normal' V6 in the rest of the range. I actually quite like the idea of a facelift GSi Estate as a smoker for the dog... can't think it'd be cheap to tool about though.

Cheers,

Grant
