I know the turbos are a lot more popular in the VW bug world and the cheapest bolt-on kit I've seen is $1600, which is pretty darn good considering that you get every little bracket and hose clamp needed. But I doubt he is selling them left and right.
Jeff,
Develping a bolt-on kit for the 914 to commercially sell would be fine if you "want" to do it, but if you think you are going to make tons of money at it, forget about it.
Ideally, the better way to do it is to develop your own installation, and offer piece parts that the average person could not fab themselves such as the exhaust. Supply a BOM and maybe sources for some of the other parts needed in the kit. This way you'd have less overhead and liability.
