Good book on chargers?

[Mr Wiggl3s]

Anyone know a good book on blowers, super charges, turbo's and such?

It's pretty outdated now, but a book about turbochargeing is by Hughe McGuinnes (I hope I spelled it right) It'll get the basics covered.

i read a book during spring break called "how to modify intake and exhaust systems".....has information about fuel injection, intake manifolds, headers, carburetors, turbochargers, superchargers and such.....not really interesting but it has a lot of information

corky bell's maximum boost i hear is a good one, i'm going to buy it when i have the money, i'm kind of without income right now (damn school)

Yes, it covers the fundamentals very well.

"Turbocharging the Internal Combustion Engine" by Watson and Janota is the #1 turbocharging book. Less extensive but newer is "Fundamentals of Turbocharging" by N. Baines. Books suchs as "Maximum Boost" is a joke in comparison, but these aren't easy to read beginners books like "Maximum Boost". Instead these are more for professionals or engineering students.
