The pressure sensor and brain give the correct matched response to a 
throttle body with the correct diameter throat.  I don't know, but I 
suspect that the 914 has a larger throat.  This won't work as hoped 
unless you modify the T3 throat, or adapt the 914 body.

I believe the T3 harness and throttle switch will work fine.

Could someone out there please measure the 914 throat?  The T3 throat 
is 40 mm.
