QUOTE Talk of 200, 250, 300 hp in a 914 just plain scares me. Not scary at all!!! just more fun to the nth degree!!! |

I agree!
Had a nice ride in a 3.6 track 914 that was almost keeping up with the new GT3 Cup Cars at the Glen. Very sweet. |

>> 3.2 911 us 207@5900 192@4800
> I have that one in the bag with a 9:1 2563 and make my torque 600 RPM lower and my HP 200 RPM higher.. There is a huge difference beyond torque and HP curves between a stock 3.2 and a modified 2.5 Type IV. Jake, have you ridden or driven in a 914 with a big 6? Driving both back to back would make for a very interesting comparision. Or even better, owning and driving both over the course of a couple months would be even better. I agree with others that both are probably good solutions - I'd like to have a 2.5/4 as an 800 mile per year autocross car, and a 3.6/6 as a 5k miles per year weekend/DE/road trip car (done). -Steve |

that's a lot of "coin" ,but my VR6 conversion keeps going up in price and in the end might be damn near that price ....right now I'd be happy with a bone stock 1.7 to drive at the rate I'm gettting my /4 running (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Or $2k to $4k more and you could have a really nice 3.6 conversion with modern fuel injection. -Steve '74 914 3.6 |
