Porsche914 guy

Thanks Jeff! I've already used that pic in our forum thread! Just a little better than cardboard cutouts for design Cheers Mark

My thread on the shoptalkforums (aircooled VW forum), but way low tech compared to this thread... http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=126654&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

Word is getting around the net about this cool thread As you can see I don't own a Z, I'm building an engine for my Porsche 914. My engine build is N/A 2.5L (stock 2.0, 95hp) type 4, 4 cylinder "boxer" engine. You could say it's comparable to the build quality of your long block. With ITB's (IDF style) and SDS FI should get N/A 180bhp+ in a 2250lb car. I've always wanted to run just a single TB but the boxer design is wrought with turbulence issues. I've been looking into the Audi plenum design so to me this is a gold mine. I wish I had your budget and/or friends but I don't. Of course I need two smaller plenum's (2 cyl's each) and a "Y". I'm looking into doing this in steel or fiberglass. Steel would be the fastest (for me) to fab, so I'm leaning that way. Fiberglass, well I'm worried about fire and I have to spend a fair bit of time on the 4 piece mold (top and bottom X 2), but it could be more exact and have no sharp edges on each plenum's interior. The fins for the slot might be a challenge. I have my own little thread on another site. Is it Ok to link some of your pictures to that thread? Could you tell me the height between the floor and roof in your main plenum? Did the size (volume) of the main plenum stay the same as when you started this project? Sorry if this has been said, this thread is a lot to digest. BTW I want to thank you, most guys with this much into a "prototype" don't like to share and/or are profit driven. Excellent stuff!
