QUOTE Sasquatch wrote: One of the local crazies from Silver Sage Region PCA decided he wanted a 50mpg 914. So, he got some VW 1.9 liter turbo diesel from Japan and stuffed it in his 914. It actually performs better than the 2.0 that was in the car and he is getting 55mpg. He even installed a heater box inside for "real" heat. Kind of sick, in a cool kind of way Attached image(s)
