Been a while since I’ve been in here. Had the 914 running with a turbocharged ej20. Ended up blowing that motor. Considering different engine options. Naturally aspirated ej20-25, or back with a turbo ej20, EZ30 or eg33 and I’m wondering what you subie guys are getting as far as fuel economy. I live in central Ca and my father lives in Arizona. My wrx is a little expensive at 25mpg or less to go see him. Thinking of turning the 914 into more of a fuel economy road trip car. Mind you I still want some power. So what are you guys gettin?

Can I hijack this thread with a question to you that are running the EZ30D, what are you using for fuel management? Can you run the stock Subaru system?

The cheapest route would be to get the harness and ecu from a donor and send it off to get converted to vw/Porsche ($600) Or megaaquirt or stinger which is around 1200 from what I've found. |

Who does the harness conversion? That sounds like the best option for a daily driver. I'm in the early planning stages for a EZ30D daily driver. Thanks for your input! |

Only problem was a self induced cooling issue. Runs perfectly every time I take it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
