Has anyone swaped a jdm evo engine into a 914. Just looking for something that would not be too expensive but also yield 250 to 275 horsepower with little weight gain. I know that the subie is more popular but just looking for alternatives to the ej20 from the wrx since these motors are expensive.

an Evo motor (from like an evo 8 or 9) runs probably in the same range as the sti motor. The subie motor is more popular becasue of its boxer 4 design, which is similar to our type 4's. With enough fabrication, im sure you could possible do it, but it probably wouldn't have as much support as the subie alternative (again, the boxer set up) but who knows. Try it. Ive never seen one before.
Also, another motor to try/look at (if you're in the inline jap 4 motor) would be a k20 series motor (probably a k20a from the integra type r) |
