So in the mail I just got these, and I'm sure it'll take awhile to digest. Any other good turbo books you guys like?

"Maximum Boost"

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Maximum-Boost-Turbocharger-Engineering-Performance/dp/0837601606"]Maximum Boost: Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems (Engineering and Performance): Corky Bell: 9780837601601: Amazon.com: Books[/ame]



"Street Turbocharging"

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Street-TurbochargingHP1488-Installation-High-Performance-Turbocharger/dp/1557884889"]Street TurbochargingHP1488: Design, Fabrication, Installation, and Tuning of High-Performance Street Turbocharger Systems: Mark Warner: 9781557884886: Amazon.com: Books[/ame]
 
I've got Maximum Boost. There is some good information on how turbocharging works, but a lot of the info is outdated. Seriously, imo the best knowledge base for turbocharging is http://www.theturboforums.com. ESPECIALLY when it come to blow thru setups.
 
I go there "regular." But I'd rather read, and be able to scratch notes in the side.

On problem I have with the forums is there is too damn many people telling you to "go do some research." Well hell, if I knew how to do all that research, I wouldn't be THERE would I LOL?
 
I have the same problem with those books as I do with 'net research. Until you spend money on parts and try it, it's fluff.
