    I think it can but most on here wont recommend. Something to do with the fuel pump i think.

    The y30dt is a bit more tolerable to tuning than the z30dt but if you fubar the high pressure fuel pump your talking possibly over a grand to sort it.

    There's always the Steinbauer route http://vectra-c.com/forum/showthread...ght=steinbauer.

    Not a re-map I know but worth considering .

    There's a couple of members who have rapped 3.0 V6cdti without issue and can give you the definitive answer on what can and can't be done but from what I've read, the gear box on the v6 CDTI is close to its max torque as standard.
