We are converting a stock 2 liter 4 cyl from D jet to Webers. My gut is telling me a 40 IDF with 32mm venturis is the correct starting point. I am considering purchase of a complete set of 44 IDF's, but are unable to locate 32 mm venturis. Assuming 32MM venturis can be found are 44 IDF"s too large for a stock 2 liter?
thank you |

I committed to D jet, sending the ECU to Module Experts in FLA and speaking with an injector service in Houston. A new carb setup is in the $860. range. Looking like the D jet is the winner

Looking like the D jet is the winner @930cabman Check reviews on Module Experts. I have no experience with them, never used them but when I visited the page, it doesn't seem to me that they specialize in vintage Porsche stuff. Likewise Google reviews aren't great . . . but obvioulsly on-line reviews can be garbage too. I believe Jeff Bowlsby who is a regular on this site, has the OEM ECU tester. He can tell if unit is OK but I don't believe he offers repair. Jeff fabricates all 914 harness wiring for engine and ECU harness that you would need. I've purchased his ignition harness as well as his alternator harness. Both are nice kit. FI harness is next up for me. https://bowlsby.net/914/WiringHarnesses/#SpecializedEquip You may want to consider Jeff unless you have a confirmation from Module Experts that they have the OEM ECU test equipment to test a vintage 914 ECU. Don't quote me but I think Automobile Atlanta also can do ECU checkout if you're looking for a second source that is at least familiar with 914 ECU hardware. |
