spent an afternoon with a legend....

i spent the whole afternoon at preston smith's house talking boost......i ran into him the other day when i was going to get a haircut, and he invited me up to his house to pick his brain about some boost related stuff.

that guy has some sweet stuff, and as many of you are aware you can never get enough of looking underneath that car lol.......

theres nothing better than learning from people who have already been there, instead of making the mistakes yourself.......its nice to have people like that living right up the street when you need a fresh idea for something, or want some theortical input on something radical.

Feel free to share some of the legendary information. I don't really see what this has to "power adders".

I talked to a lengendary engine builder once. I still can't build stuff for beans though.

because its all part of learning more about engine theory as it relates to boost.....before his car was turbo'd it was supercharged as well.
