Most 914 owners simply swapping their current D-Jet for a new system, for stock or nearly stock 914s, need it to be bolt on and drive. So we really dont need TBs, sensors, injectors, fuel pump or an air filter, we have these already and can get stock parts rather than having to buy or adapt GM parts or anything ported over from some other platform. These can add up to huge $$$, and unecessarily.

What we need is a preprogrammed ECU, with wiring harness prefit to or easily adapatable to our engines, and thats it. If its absolutely essential to swap sensors (if the ECU maps cannot be changed for instance), then I guess that can be done, but less hassle and the fewer mods we need to make, for us is better.

A programmable ECU would be best for the cars with modifications, but they should be preprogrammed for stock 1.7, 1.8 and 2.0L requirements out of the box, or come with the maps for the user to program as long as programming is not to difficult. Most of us don't need 50-gazillion options for ignition control, turbos, etc....there are other systems for those folks already.

Price? Sub 1K would be very nice and should sell well for the basic system described. The higher you get above 1K to convert to some other system, the more unreasonable it becomes.
