Default my rotary 914 porsche

bought this project which was about 60% complete. Got it all up and running, but need to tune the weber 48 IDA. Anyone know much about proper jetting for these things?
The mid-engine design makes this thing handle like a go-cart. It also has porsche 911 suspension. Ironic conversion being that a german invented the rotary. Why not put it in a german car?

hey hey hey! hahaha I actually like the look of the stock 914s better. The body kit was already done when I bought the car. maybe someday I will look for a clean roller to swap everything into.

I like the 916 kit on it. Looks aggressive! There is a mint 914 that runs around here. I see him every so often, guy looks like a crazy old hippie that upgraded from a Beetle.

There is a guy from Georgia that was at DGRR last year with a rotary 911, might have been a 912.

Anyway, it had a 13B turbo with an air-to-water intercooler, and twin oil coolers. Pretty nasty little car!

That is awesome. Yeah, looks a bit aggressive which is sort of why I don't like it. I only have a lightly street ported 13b. I'd rather have the sleeper look
