i could be wrong and please state if i am but does mean my 1/4 mile times make this the fastest orion 1/4 mile times on paper???????
The last proven orion i believe was the Urban Racing green one running 1/4 mile in 13.3 secs again i could be wrong. I know there are a couple of big power orion's in the making which will be great to have some opposition when they are completed. |

You cant tell them that cos they know everything butyour right the terminal suggests way under 300bhp & thats the bit that dont lie. Lots not understanding that ET is about the grip off the line & the Terminal is about its Power.

I couldn;t care less how fast it is or isnt, but your attitude would suggest that your a complete knob and thats why most of the people who talk sense have stopped posting on the thread.
FFS no matter how fast it goes, it'll always be a shitbox orion. And I'm not biased against orions. Theres very few fords I like. Most of them are shit boxes. Unfortunately this happens to be one of the most informative forums so I have to put up with threads about rusty old bangers

I come to the site as its full of useful info and I like the restos, and most of the people You've not proved anyone wrong. You've proved the car can do 12s and made yourself look like a knob. I've yet to see any GPS verified top speeds. I haven;t looked at your car. I've read this thread but had no interest in looking at the ebay link. And I haven;t really spoke about your car. Your attitude suggests your a knob, because theres such a thing as restraint and smug satisfaction, and then theres your posts. And I think I'll keep my attitude right here on this forum and the many others I use. |

I would have assumed you were happy that your car got into the 12s? But as per the rest of the thread your straight on the defensive. Rod isn;t claiming your car doesnt do the times. He's just telling you it doesnt have the power you claim. TBH why even bother claiming an amount of power that you can;t prove. You can prove whats done to the car and the 1/4 times. To me thats far more impressive than a willy waving 300 internet horsepower I'd rather have a 260bhp car doing 12s, than a 300bhp car doing nothing (like so many on the internet/down the pub) |

What speed did nms get to & christian major? im doubtfull about the top speed claims of the orion as well when you read the thrash results & power claims some ppl never see a true recorded 160 with more spec than this orion just because the needle goes right round nearly to the start dont mean its doing 160 mph. My old rs turbo used to do that with a standard intercooler chip & actuator.

Shall we just get the car rolling roaded to stop all the bitching or would you all just find something else to pick fault at??? How many times do you need proving wrong??? At the end of the day we built most of this car in a back yard we have four fwd rs turbo powered cars in the 12 second 1/4 mile time and not one has set foot near a tuners garage!!!! U slate Mattys Orion like it's a piece of shit when it's one of the fastest fwd recorded this forum is full of people putting people down and picking faults!!! At the end of the day the cars fast end of!!

Too many posts.. I need a life!!

dipping into the 12's is pretty impressive and is a very fast road car so fair
play buddy but i think the only people who can comment on this really are the people who have been there and done it (NMS boys,christian etc) they are the boys who know exactly whats needed to do the speeds

Love it dude nice times.
I wonder how many people have hovered over the reply buton but then thought "nah i'll just pretend i've forgotten about it" Even when you prove yourself you still gets knobs slagging off the orion needlessly! Thats what rats do when they're cornered. lash out

with regards to what vroomtsh bloke says, i think its out of order, i don't think you'd like it if some one came and slagged you of like you have done to Matty (orioturbo)
so i think its best you leave him alone now, as your quite frankly being a childish prick

Looks like a nice car and tbh I think its a sensible price to pay for a car that fast.
As for people who claim to know what power you need to have to be running x speed ![]() Maybe there is a formula but clearly there are too many variables as with a r/r'd 273hp I have run a 12.5 @ 121mph, backed up with several more 12.5 runs at 118 and 119mph so clearly you do NOT need 350+hp to do those times ! Best of luck with the sale
