Has anyone ever heard of the ludicrous idea of putting a VW type I engine in a 914?
I have been pondering about this for years and never saw anything about it, I think it would cheap cost effective way to get HP w/o sacrificing weight of a v8/wrx motor. I am torn 8k for v8/wrx/or a six, I want 200 hp but i dont want to tear the car up to do and i dont want to spoil the handling..... I am So torn......any ideas.....

I'm waiting for someone to put a T1 in their car. I think it would be really interesting. I know, not a great long term option, but it would still be interesting to see it done. If you've got a 914 with no motor and a T1 sitting nearby, give it a shot! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
