While poking around E-Bay between patients, I noticed a listing for an Cold-Air Intake for the D-Jet.

I have used them in my other car with noticeable improvement in engine pickup.

Anyone have any 914 success with these lately?

Have not used one before, however.  The 914 unlike a "conventional car" probably needs one less.  The intake is in the engine bay, which is flooded with cool air, as all air flow for engine cooling is top down. (assuming all your rubber engine seals are in place)  So the air intake is already in front of the enigne, not behind it.  It is already getting cool air above teh motor in the air stream.

I beg to differ. The stock intake location is in a horrible location and air is preheated by as much as 60 degrees F.

TEMP TESTS AND COLD AIR INTAKE
