This has been talked about extensively and it seems like it is possible. These are the issues I see that need to be resolved:
1. DN Hunt has nearly completed the A/F maps for a stock 2.0…dyno time is all that remains. 2. Someone, or the car owner, needs to obtain and build the MS hardware. 3. Someone, or the car owner, needs to get the additional needed components and assemble/modify them ready to bolt on and either offer an exchange program or let the car owner do it: TPS, sensors, plenum mods, O2 sensor bung, MegaSpark and…(I am sure there is more). 4. Someone, or the car owner, needs to get me a complete system operational, so I can prototype the harness and make it a bolt on. I suspect I will be on D-jet for quite a while before my stash of MPS’s run out…that and my other 914 projects… The only way I see this will work is if a turn-key package can be assembled and sold competitive with the cost of carbs. I think the hard cost of the components is competitive and reasonable, but a truly bolt-on, turn key swap, considering the cost of labor to assemble the board makes it more pricey. What else needs to be done? I can and will do the harness when the opportunity arises…who else can jump in and help? |

I like the look of dual carbs too but when you drive a good running FI car vs a carb car you will love the " feel of FI".
