Without touching it about 1776 with a stock or very mild cam.  if you build
a 2L or higher you can easliy convert to a 914 2L system that has a curve
for the larger engine but I know that one of us :-) has used the stock
yellow injectors to 2L without problem. Once you get to 2L you may need to
noodle with some of the calibrations (Temp sensors) to change the warmup
curve a little, and the fuel pressure to enrichen the mixture over the whole
range.  I wouldnt touch the pressure sensor calibration unless you know
EXACTLY how the unit works and this almost requires a PhD.  Stick with
matched system parts and it will be alot easier than setting up a set of
aftermarket carbs on it.
