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)

Never was a dull moment with a forced induction T4.
Here at RIR, parked on the infield near turn 6. Drove there on street tires, then changed to 7" slicks for the time trials. On the mps, I first started using a 1-way check valve to keep boost out of the mps. Then I found a small company "Control box Specialties" that used an alum disc inside the mps...instead of the neoprene one. They also rebuilt 914 ecu's , etc. But they vanished after a couple years. |

Removing exterior trim to get ready for a bit of bodywork in the near future.
