Re: other turbo question

theres really no step by step best thing to do is just read someone elses build log thats close to what you want and that may help.

Re: other turbo question

Maximum Boost by Corky Bell
Turbocharging Performance Handbook by Jeff hartman

Probably some other books but those are where I'd start. Thats how I started actually with those two books and then started browsing theturboforums.com and other sites looking at various builds. Once you learn how to read a compressor map, you can size a turbo for your goals and then build from there.

Placement and design of the system in the car is soley up to you.
