Hey guys. This is my first post and I was hoping some of you guys could help me out. I have a 75 1.8 914 and obvoiusly with only 73 hp, I could use some more. I was wondering what things i could do to get some more horses out of it. I would prefer not to do a conversion as I am on a budget, but any ideas would be great!

Its a different grind that produces more hp and less oil temps. I think its upto Jake to state the grind specs online as its his produce. I will say I noticed a real seat of the pants difference from the stock cam as I just got my 2056 running again after replacing the cam in it. I also have installed one in the 1.7L engine that I am working on for Blairs 914. I finally got mine to idle right this weekend but that was due to other problems. Runs great with nice torque in the low revs and power seems to peak at 5000 rpms and revs easily to 6500. |
