A vote for #1 is a vote for the following: a 1973 4 cyl car, was a 1.7, then a 2.0, then a turbo 2.0, and is being re-built with some Jake forged goodies and a set of Len's heads to play with more PSI. Panasports for street, Keizers for autocross, its an autocross terror on 205's. I kinda like the narrow/stock body. A little more sleeper-ish. Suspension had been thru 3 generations of change of spring rates, sway bars, corner balance, and alignment to add a razors edge to the already sharp handling of the 914. The turbo system is run by SDS efi, (the car is now featured on their project page) twin ITB's, upgraded fuel system from the pump to the injectors, top mount intercooler, remote turbo system (12psi) and oil system, all designed, fabricated, and installed by me. And all well hidden. Sleeper style. I had a guy ask me at Road America before a track lapping session if the big thing between the webers was the air cleaner... right. The only thing I've not re-built myself is the trans. The project links are in my sig. Oddly enough, the first 3 of the vin are the first 3 of my ss#. Automotive karma?
Funny story about the purchase. I was in Kansas some 17 yrs ago, found the car, called my wife of less than a year to suggest a purchase. OK, beg for a purchase. She "advised" me this was the single worst idea she had ever heard. Newly married, bought a house, she's in a new town looking for a job, why would I even consider this. So. Being newly married and not fully aware of the consequences, I called by dad, borrowed the $2200 to purchase it, he drove down w/his pick up, rented a Uhaul trailer, and brought it back to his place. Great plan, until Nancy came with me to visit dad one weekend, put 1 + 1 togather, and dad and I were busted. I found out asking for forgiveness when permission had failed was not the best plan. After changing my address to: "sofa city" for a bit, she got over it, and now is a strong supporter of "Yellow Car" and its mission to crush all others in SM2.
Just a few more pics: The car at the GRM booth at Road America last year, the car and owner at the "Austin Powers Auto Cross", and one more at an event, pre turbo, running DSP. Thanks for your consideration.
You got my vote. Real type IV with a turbo.
and more and better pictures of your car 
The reason I was attracted to David's car (#1) in the first place is the fact that he has done what people say cannot be done. His install is so clean it looks factory.
I always thought the gulf blue with phoenix trim was my favorite but I may be going more to the green cars these days.
