    I had an 89 1.6 orion and it could go like FXXK. I used to open the drivers window and here the purr of the CVH engine. Could cruise at 90 and whisper quiet.

    my old 1984 1.6 ghia mk 3 escort would never accelerate like that. it always ran out of puff over 5000 rpm. might have been the crappy standard carb ?

    Interesting, what mods you doing? Mine does 0-100 in about 21 seconds IIRC according to the brochure which came with the TT kit.
