Mate of mine has a V6 vectra but its the CDX model. How can he get more power without spending hundred and hundreds on parts. He can get Vauxhall parts at trade price so if there is any from vaux he can get that would increase his power they wont be too hard to get hold of.

Lightened flywheel is meant to make a big difference.

Lightened flywheel, GSi cams and ECU. Mighr even be worth considering swapping the final drive for a shorter one to increase acceleration - i'd imagine the V6 to have somewide gearing, so it'd tighten that up a bit .

I read the enlarged throttle body gives about 7bhp. According to Regal, so don't know if its accurate!!!!
