My 914 is going in for some engine work and I am considering one of Jake's kits, either the 2056 140hp or the 2270 145hp package. Any thoughts any comments?
The car is going to be an aggressive weekend summer driver -- to autocross or track. I just want to drive the hell out of it. |

He would show me something or just point and explain. so I did the majority of it, but without his mentoring I would probably have a non-running pile of parts still. |
