@realred914, what is your budget?
you know that you will spend at least $4-6000 with the engine mods that you want, which will lead you to a max of 120hp. if you want a lot of HP for your $$$ you should consider as well other options as a V8 or a subaru "upgrade". |

How about new heads or head work? Balancing? I have about the same amount invested in parts, plus balancing and ceramic coating. main bearings only are about $150 a set. Then you need/should refurb the old injectors, that's about $120 a set. It's difficult for me to believe that a T4 overhaul is only $2500. If you can do it please share your secrets. I would very much appreciate your input. @ Jake, I’m sure that a lot of fellow club members are seriously dedicated to their 914, however, the budget is the budget. Unfortunately not everybody is able to spend $10k on a engine build. I know you don’t cut corners and that’s good and is very well reflected in your great engine kits, however, the 914 was introduced to the market as a budget alternative to the 911. |
