I have my heat exchangers and muffler off my 914 and need to move my car.
Is it safe to fire it up and drive it ten-twenty feet without damaging anything? I realize it will be super loud but it needs to be moved up an incline out of the road before it gets hit by someone not paying attention. I just tried to push it but fell shy of my target. Chip |

nope. not a good idea
IIRC without any kind of manifold pushing the gases away from the exhaust port it can get sucked back into the engine which is really bad. just heat exchangers are fine tho |
