Spend thousands on your type 4... for just a few more hp? It all comes down to personal preference, and wallet size. I respect anyone who drives a 914, just don't crush it.

Some people love the sound of the 4, to me they sound like VWs - I pump the gas pedal twice and turn the key "Broom!!!" the V8 fires up with authority (sets off car alarms everywhere). I have driven the car 50 miles a day for over a year and I still find it hard to touch the accelerator to the floor - I almost never need more than 1/4 throttle and short shift at 2000 rpm to blow from one traffic light to another. Instead of chasing the hondas, vipers are prey with 400hp.
