Hey guys! I'm sure this has been hashed out a million times here, but i was just wondering how it feels to have a powerful 914-6. I own a totaled 2.0 and it's stock. Wrecked it right after high school. (good tires are important!!!) Interesting enough-my friend owned a 1998 454 suburban and my 914 was exactly as fast as it all the way to 98 mph when the suburban's governor kicked in. Here's my question-how fast is a regular 914-6? What car (speed wise) does it compare to? I understand all 914-6's will be different-but i would like to know about yours. Let me know your thoughts!

I have a realatively stock 2.0-4 and a 2.5-6 that was a street car. Not exactly a fair comparision. The 6 kicks ass. The four is fun. Jake will be here shortly with a four that can probably kick my ass, but the sound of a small six reving up to 7k is a wonderful thing along with the allure of the porsche 6. Now the bad side, Sixes cost MONEY... Rebuilds will cost your first born male child... A jake 4 will cost as much as a six up front but will cost less in rebuilds. A low milage 3.2 seems to be a nice comprimise, fuel injection, computer controlled, long life, stock hp over 200, lots of tq.....
Depending on budget, suspension, TIRES, a jake like four and you have a car that will take years for you to grow into its potential. |
