The CRF us spec is Picco based and if im not mistaken shares a lot with the Picco P7-R evo3...good chance a P7 rod will fit...P7 rods come in standard and Edo modified.

I was wondering what pipe combo would work best on the Orion .24?? Thanks

I really liked the 2057 on the Trinity .24 I ran last year. Also, 2058 should be a good pipe for it, and will provide more bottom end..

hey guys

iam currently running a novaplus 4 team edition and looking to change to orion engines. what would be a good equivelent to the nova i have been looking at the 5 port one. and what pipe is best suited to this engine.

thanks for your help

The 2058 pipe is amazing to use with the Orion engines. David have increased his mileage alot with this and 7.0 Ventuty on both the 3 and 7 port engines.

In sweden he normaly have 10:00 - 11:30 runningtime, and we always go for 9:00 refueling time .. often as the only driver.

Then ofcause the gas finger is very important, but before the 2058 he never could go on 9 minutes with the same engines.

Hey PitPop, wanted to say congrats on the good buggy finish.. Looks like Jared, and Cody had those Orion engines ripping Sunday evening. Truhe's Nvision looked good too..

What happened to Cody in truck? What was your pit strategy in buggy? I noticed Tebo went 9min stops, but noticed Cody stopped with 5 to go..

What engine and pipe was in Cody's truck at the Nitro Pit? It looked very fast....

I think from now on I will put heat shrink over them to make sure they won't come out. We could have gone 9 pretty easy, but we lost our warm-up because of the rain. The engine was new, so I never got a good bead on it. There was no way I could risk it not knowing what kind of mileage we were getting after running the engine rich during qualifying. Insult to injury, we ran Monday and went 11 minutes on a tank :lol: not that it mattered, because the gap to truhe was much more than one pit stop anyway. :D

Cody was running the King Edition WC 5 port engine in both buggy and truggy. I could not be more happy with these engines. Tons of power, good fuel economy, and easy to tune. Just fantastic and proud to be associated with it... :)

Good Job at the pit Pk . I also used a new Orion Discovery motor at the race and was really impressed with this mill. Millage was easily over 10 with the stock 7.5 venturi. I was using the 2013 pipe.

Thanks for the update Pitpop.. I figured it was something like a newer motor or something.. I remembered you saying you had just gotten them a week or two before hand.. It was good seeing the Orions running up front in buggy.. 1 & 3 is never a bad thing..

I ran the Discovery this weekend as well and this thing is amazing. I finished a 10 minute main with 1/4 tank of fuel left. This was the 2013 pipe and stock 7.5 venturi. This was running in buggy. Very smooth powerband.

Really glad I made the purchase.
