How fast? Options

[Gearren]

I am thinking about converting the 2.0 to a six with HP in the low 200s, but before I go on with the conversion, how fast will the car be, what other cars can it beat, 0-60 times.

I don't know if any of this is accurate but I lifted it from a different post.
------------------------------
stock 914 2.0:
0 - 60: 9.5 sec
1/4 mile: 17.2 @ 84 mph
40-60 in 5th: 9.6 sec

2270 B engines (153 hp in the dyno run posted):
0 - 60: 5.8 sec
1/4 mile: 14.1 @ 101 mph
40-60 in 5th: 5.8 sec

At this point (14 flat) your running with any stock Mustang Cobra and Camaro SS, and plainly outhandling them too. At least you can keep up with a '92 twin turbo RX7 in a straight line.

a 165 hp 2.4 E (six) gives the following:
0 - 60: 5.2 sec
1/4 mile: 14.0 @ 104.2 mph
40 - 60 in 5th: 7.1 sec

The quick time to 60 is due in large part to hitting 60 in 2nd instead of 3rd gear. 1/4 mile time is about the same as the 2270, even with the extra weight of the six conversion. The 40 - 60 number shows the 911 engine's low-rpm softness.

A 190 hp 2.7:
0 - 60: 4.6 sec
1/4 mile: 13.3 @ 109.2 mph
40 - 60 in 5th: 6.1 sec

Yeehaa!! You're now in '97 Vette and 98 NSX territory.

210 hp 2.7:
0 - 60: still 4.6 sec
1/4 mile: 12.8 @ 113.5 mph
40 - 60 in 5th: 5.0 sec

A tick quicker than a '97 Lotus Esprit V8 and the '99 Diablo VT Roadster.

210 hp carb'd 3.0 liter:
0 - 60: 4.9 sec
1/4 mile: 13.1 @ 112.4 mph
40 - 60 in 5th: 5.4 sec

224 hp 3.2:
0 - 60: 4.6 sec
1/4 mile: 12.8 @ 115.3 mph
40 - 60 in 5th: 5.0 sec

249 hp worked 3.2:
0 - 60: 4.1 sec
1/4 mile: 12.2 @ 119.3 mph
40 - 60 in 5th: 4.2 sec
