Hey guys, I was reading the other day that if you do a carb conv. that you also need a new cam. Was wondering exactly what cam i need and if it will be cheaper just to fix the FI, because I have the new dual carb system and the old FI which needs to be totally re-worked, all components need to be replaced. I have a 1.7.
Thanks |

Oops. fires are good for roasting animal flesh, bad for 914's. Sorry to hear that man. Ok, go for the carbs. Forget the cam, unless you just want to take engine apart anyway.

Yeah, already been down twice lol, I'm having issues on top end performance. I can do a burn-out taking off, get to 50 in like 8-10 seconds, but once it hits 50, thats about it, with the pedal clear to the floor going down hill I can hit almost 70, and thats it, if it start climbing a hill it starts falling down to about 60. Not sure what could be the problem |
