Any pics to go with any new update on this. Sounds like a really nice swap WRX engine into a porsche!

That's awesome. I think there was an article on one in the latest issue of SubieSport magazine.

talk about awesome power to weight (with a wrx motor), and the 914 is the craziest handling car I've driven

the 914 I'm selling right now has a bored and stroked motor, race springs, adjustable konis, yokohama a008r's and more, handles insanely well

BTW go read Sport Compact Car November 2005 issue page 32. They talk about what you just did...you should send them a letter.
Subie Sport also has this conversion in the new mag. I owned a 914-6 and am more then a little curious about this swap :-)
