Everybody knows the 4 bangers are better for Autocrosses. Somebody sell me their 2316 for cheap. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Some people say it's all in the combo. I totally agree, my 2.0L Bus piston motor could really push that car. But the suspension set up is what made it fast. a 2316 in the racer woulda been absolutely "uncivilized" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) |

Yea well of all the 914 autocrossers you and Grant are the one's I wanted to race heads up.
OK ya'll should I just duplicate the the yellow car with a 2056? and put the balance of the money into fiberglass parts? Pretty much set on keeping it type 4 powered. Koni's, Poly suspension bushings, 15 x 8 wheels both street and track, Looking at HPH flares in the back and sumpin bigger than stock fender in the front. Going to be yellow Cuz it's always faster.

DSP actually crossed my mind. Too bad the motor is limited in that class.
Street mod is a great place till a ZO6 shows up. Then it is all just all about getting seat time. |

You bought another 914? Group: Benefactors Posts: 7,624 Joined: 27-June 03 From: Portage, IN Member No.: 865 Region Association: None |
I run DSP, the lower end of mods so far but suspension is the winter projects. I do need to make sure I don't move myself to SM2 with the changes. Now where did I put that rule book......

That's pretty much what happened to me. I was just fine with my stock 1.7L D-jet and all the suspension mods.
Was that good enough NOOOOO! I put my hopped up 2.0L in the car and Wham! welcome to street mod. Doesn't seem fair that a little old cam would do that. What's it really worth 5hp? port matching has already been proven to be minimally effective. The Dual valve springs are legal in DSP as is the carbs (I think) But to make power with carbs you need a cam. It's all just a tangled web. What I should do is build a street car with the 1.7L and go buy a shifter Kart. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif) |
