I first laid eyes on this 914 3-1/2 years ago and told the PO "I want this car". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)
Things finally fell into place and this beauty now sits in my driveway (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvUZ_WM_NEg SPECS: Factory GT flares 914-6 suspension, brakes, steering column and ignition 2.0L with Supercharger (Jay Richardson built in the late '80s) Twin plug heads (not connected at this point) 15" Fuchs - I believe they are 7" & 8" This 914 has been discussed here and here in the past. If you have any information concerning this car (VIN 4732922153) or the supercharged engine, please contact me via PM. More pics to come. Delivered tonight at dusk. Has some rough spots from sitting for a few years but will be a fun project. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I wanted a supercharger for the 4.0L motor. Betty told me "NO!".

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) Do you really need more than 350hp in a 914? YES! It currently has 420HP (not verified). The 993/964 Supercharger Kit utilizes the Eaton, positive displacement supercharger to generate 50% more power over stock. That would put me somewhere in the neighborhood of 630HP. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Eaton 964/993 supercharger kit But the kit is 15K, and I would have to modify it to fit a 914 anyway.... so I am not going to do it. But it would be fun to have..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
