Hello, I am new to the turbo thing, but it seems to be the way to go (very little parasitic drag). I have also heard that Vortech style superchargers make for a very unnatural powerband, (very little guts down low and blow the tires off up high)is this true? What do I do to learn more about turbo's?

Hey BOWTIROC. Run to the book store and pick up these two books:

"MAXIMUM BOOST" by Corky Bell
"TURBOCHARGERS" by Hugh MacInnes

These two books together will give you a GREAT understanding of turbochargers. I guarantee you wont be disappointed with either one of those books, and Corky Bell is hilarious! Especially when he disses Nissan!

I dont think you'll spend over 60 bucks for both books together.

 

i second that
Corky Bell is the man.
check out ebay, or amazon, some time they have it on auction. i bought my @ border, and it cost around $40. i can't put it down after i start reading it though.
