Know any good books about turbocharging?

[Marc-OS]

I'm interested in turbo charging my car, but I want to learn what everything does and how it works together before I go full out and turbo my car. So what are some good books that go indepth and really explain turbocharging?

Maximum Boost by Corky Bell, it's a really good book to read. Should run you about 25 bucks from amazon.com

the honda builders handbooks kinda go over turbo set ups. Unless you know a fair amount about that already don't get them, I suggest Corky Bel first and if you have a clear understanding skip honda builders. To be honest I was fairly disapointed in the two books, you can learn just as much by just sitting on the internet and reading technical sites.

I too am floored by the excellent information in this book. There's way way too much good info to try and absorb in one sitting - it's absolutely worth buying, reading cover to cover slowly but surely, and keeping as a reference as well. I've heard that Corky has a new, equivalent book available on superchargers as well now.
