Hey Hey,
Check it out, http://www.9xauto.com/914.html
Maybe if we do a group buy of rear calipers we can get a deal (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)

We appreciate your criticism. If you need to pick our brains in regards to some of the products we sell. You are welcome.

In regards to our fuel rails- Our local PCA technical committee will not allow any 914 with our fuel rails to run in "unmodified" class. We received their opinion stating the "power gain will be significant in comparison to the stock".

This fuel rail is the first step in modifying 914 FI fuel system.

Here is our recent experiment with 2.0 FI


Stock fuel injectors are 28 psi or 28 LB/Per hour rated. We installed 55 psi or 55 Lb/Ph injectors and increased fuel pressure from 28 psi to 55Psi. Original fuel rails had to go. Now, next step we added more air to the engine. Increased gasoline flow needs more air. We increased the size of unreasonably small throttle body, by removing the original air plenum and installing early type 1.7 single carburetor intake system. However, instead of the carburetor, large size throttle body was fitted reusing carburetor’s mounting bolts. Fireball XR 3000 replaced our ignition as well. The result was stunning. We are still working to refine the system. Aircraft industry is still using this engine in CESNA’s. There are lessons to be learned from them.

If you believe it is all B.S. Printed out and show this to the 914 mechanic.
