yep the omega has "dual ram" but there's no way it'll fit under the nova bonnet!! I've never seen it under a vectra bonnet tbh, i've seen the saab dual ram set up used though on a mk2 astra.

lmfao there is no chance an omega one will fit without some serious cutting.

how much to high do the vaeky ones sit what about if u rased the bonnet would it fit then plus would be more cooling for it in a very small engine bay ???
