The 130 mph end speed is a fluke, but a cool one :-)

Yes, the base can indeed be a stock-ish 914 2.0 as that engine had the same hp as the current all-worked-up 2.2ltr... turbo selcetion is therefore critical as well. Further its actually quite simple and no more than a 10-step process (and 5 year EFI-tuning experience
):
- rebuild heads on an otherwise good but stock 914 2.0 and just use better (type 1) valve springs (double ones or single with Ti retainers, your pick)
- install pauter rockers;
- install dry-sump system;
- install EFI system with large (50-55 lbs) injectors;
- install the largest intercooler you can find;
- make your own exhaust from something existing;
- hang turbo, make drain to sump extension
- make sure your tranny is strong enough;
- hang on and have load of fun!
Didn't even need 10 steps for that
