I have a (hopefully) quick question: can the 2.0L FI be used on a 1.7L without modifying/swapping anything? I have a 2.0L on an engine stand but would like to rebuild it to a 2056, keeping the original FI. While I do this, I would still like to drive my 914 and have a 1.7L that I could use during the rebuild. Is this easily doable?
I’m pretty sure it is as I actually used this FI on a 1.8L utilizing all of the 2.0L externals. Thanks! |

James, what injection do you use? The 2.0L I’m going to run factory original since I have it but would POSSIBLY be interested in something else fr the 1.7L as she knows how long it’ll take me to rebuild my engine. Life gets in the way and I have MANY other projects as well (house, garage, family stuff, etc.).
The 2.0L might be okay to run as it spins well on the stand with no binding anywhere. I don’t know the actual condition as I haven’t had the heads off, but figured if I’m going that far, might as well take it the rest of the way. Plus the engine has been sitting for 11 - 12 years, always stored inside, but still not a conditioned space. |

I have built a few different setups using Megasquirt/microquirt ECUs. Its a pretty steep learning curve for most though.
Thankfully there are quite a few vendors on board now and sell parts that make this much easier these days. |
