I have a porsche 914 2 liter flat 4 andd I wanted some more power.?
 
I was wondering if I should turbo charge the engine or try and get a flat six. Also are

there any porsche 914 compatible engines that I should look for.

Get a Porsche 3.2 FI motor. Great combo and easy conversion. You can use the stock transmision and gears. You will need a conversion flywheel and a 914-6 oil tank. For the track you may need an external oil cooler too.

I did my 914 this way.

Subaru conversions are popular currently. Reliable power, low maintenance and you can use the smoother shifting Subaru transmission. There are several conversion kits available. I'm currently doing this to my 914.

Lots of good info here.

And it still goes on today. I have several divisions here, where different employees make things happen. The 914 and 356 engines were my first, today a Raby aircooled engine costs more than a Boxster engine that makes 200HP more.

I say stuff a nuclear reactor back there in the engine bay to be different. That's about the only thing that hasn't been tried on those 914s. There is so much you can do with them! I think the best bang for the buck is the Subaru engine/trans combo followed by the LS1/930 trans. There's nothing wrong with keeping it stock either.
