&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;No cup holders but it does have a Chapstick holder! Does your Fusion have one of these?

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;Hi,
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I am new to porsche but have bought a 912E as a driver.  Living in central Texas requires a/c unless you are skinny and young, of which I am neither.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
My question is what mods may be made to the type 4 motor in order to bump up a bit of HP to compensate the draw of the compressor, and is it worth the effort?
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
From my reading, sounds like a simple increase of piston/cylinder size is the most effective way to achieve more horses.  I wish to keep this fairly simple.
&lt;br /&gt;
How much trouble is a modification to the FI and injectors?
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks,
&lt;br /&gt;
John
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
