Having a brain fart (don't want to talk about this idea yet).. and I want to know if anyone knows the HP required to drive a 914 down a level road at 60 mph? Let's assume that it is bone stock. I know it takes less than 76 HP.. or the 1.7/1.8 would never be able to hold freeway speed.

About 180 wh/mile if everything is just right, so that's 10,800 W which is also about 14.5 HP.

Very close to my measurments!!!!

Currently my car @65mph: 116V @ 100 amps = 15.5hp

I still have some poor tires and really bad alignment.
