Oh the trouble we go through (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif).

Someday I hope to take a long road trip in the 914, who knows how far I will get. I have cousins in Huntington Beach, great uncle worked for Howard Hughes.

Tuning the MPS is a bit of a beast. After a couple of years poking at it I think I have determined why it is so hard to get perfect on my 2056. The vacuum profile of the motor is different at cruise. This will also play havoc with your EGR and retard. When it comes time the first thing you will want to do is get a good baseline of what vacuum you are pulling at idle and cruise. My engine pulls so much more than stock that it was activating the retard circuit when it shouldn't have been and same with the advance. Once you start reaching into the throttle it doesn't matter so much but it's the part throttle bits that really get screwy. Don't forget you can use that pump to monitor vacuum in the plenum. Will be interesting to know how much yours is pulling.
