European Car (RIP), maybe when it was still VW&Porsche, magazine did a story on a black 914 with chrome five-lug Fuchs, the "PORSCHE" side valances, and...a twin-plug Type IV engine—noting it ran noticeably smoother and sounded better with dual ignition. Same car may have been supercharged at some point? I have that issue somewhere. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) You gotta go back to the motivations for modding the base motor to begin with. Goals: more performance, smother running, alternate exhaust dynamic... retention of *quasi* stock configuration How much is that worth~ ? Sure you can yank it & Six it. Some folks just like to do it the ..unconventional way |
