Turbocharge

As you probably know, I bought my husband a Porsche 914 off of eBay last summer. It was a project car; it didn't run and needed to be rebuilt. Ive learned a lot about rebuilding car engines in the last year and a half!

One thing that surprised me was the the Porsche 914 was the product of an agreement between VW and Porsche in the early 1970's. Basically, the engine is a souped up VW in a sweetly designed car. At least, that's how I understand it! He's always been curious how to make his car  more powerful and faster. i think I have a resource for him!

I just found this turbocharger site online. It specifically mentions VW engines. Is this some way Darren could turbocharge the Porsche? I've given him the link, and he's definitely checking it out. Since the weather is cold, he can't drive his car anymore, so he works on it a lot. With the information here, he may have his car supercharged by the spring!
