A group of us in Texas are starting a grassroots Spec 914 race series. It's a low key, low cost (yes, I lie to myself often) race series among friend-emies.
I race a Spec Boxster in PCA/NASA and also have two seasons of Chump/Lemons in our "hippie 908" 914-4, which was the inspiration/sickness for these new builds, but otherwise have little knowledge of 914's and asking for suggestions after doing much reading here. What exhaust do you recommend? My car is a 75 914-4 1.8L ( all cars will be 1.7/1.8L) and I'm considering Triad and Bursch but unable to find much info on SSI or Thunderbird (recommended to me). This is a race only car so HP and weight trump noise/drone/durability/price. The spec requires stock headers/HE but otherwise free after the flange. We're using dual Webers. Also, are wheel studs available, hoping to get rid of the lug bolts. Bullet nose even better. Thanks! |
