Hello World,
Has anyone successfully been able to pair(dial in) a modified 914 L-jet system with a 2200 or 2258?
I am looking into doing this for my street car and am aware that the AFM will need to be modified. I have a 52mm throttle body with a modified throttle actuator so the operating arm will work with the L-jet and will fit the stock plenum seal.
Will I need bigger fuel injectors than my new 2.0 injectors? If so, which ones?
What else do I need?
I did a Google search using key words, but was not able to find any previous threads on this topic.
Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated.

Thank you all for your replies...keep them coming, especially if you have any experience with the combo of 914 L-jet with larger displacement.
Interesting that folks have mentioned modifying the AFM & using a larger TB, but still...all done on nothing larger than a 2056.
To answer your question, Zach, my first build that went south(geographically & literally) was a 2056 and I had purchased new injectors and had the AFM & AAR rebuilt. I am attempting to preserve that small investment while considering larger displacement on the re-do build.
