I am thinking of adding a Turbo Unit to my 914. It currently is a 1973 F.I. 1.7. I am getting different opinions and need some input.
Are there any kits for a 914, and if so, where can I purchase one? Should I keep my F.I. or convert to a Weber Carb? Will I have to fabricate any parts - and if so - what? Do you recommend any reliable mechanics in the Los Angeles area? I live in San Bernadino County but commuting is no big deal. For those of you that have a Turbo Unit - what problems can I expect from it? Is it reliable? Thanks for the feed back. Craig |

Turbo's can be done BUT you really need to know 'personally' what your doing.
No kits, therefore everything is custom and if you can't DIY = expensive. By the sounds of things you will be having a mechanic do most of your work. I would suggest that a mild big 4 might be a better way for you to go, as they can be built reliable with not much more maintenance than a stock engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
