    I was always told the x30xe with G cams and MSD ecu was the fastest way to go with a v6?

    Are the 3.2s quicker now?

    You were told wrong then mate about the ecu anyway as msd didn't do anything to the ecu the only difference to a standard Sri vectra with the Gsi were cams and a back box on the performance side anyway just as with the st200
    told you saloons are the future!!!!!!!

    welding looks good pal, David Dixon reckons 2.5 with 3.0 cams iirc over the 3.0, the 3.0 is for pub banter

    I reckon its BS personally as my sister had a 2.5 V6 Vectra and I couldnt notice any difference at all before/after she had 3.0 cams put in it!
