Description: Book Description
Founded on the author's many years of experience in building, tuning and modifying high-performance engines, it sets out in accessible language the principles involved in forced induction, supported by tables and numerous illustrations. From basic theory through to building a rugged engine, all the important aspects of supercharging and turbocharging are explained and analyzed.

Pros: Excellent Read! Covers many, many aspects of building and tuning a forced induction car.
Cons: Covers turbos too, but that's not so bad. A bit pricey

While a bit more expensive than Corky's book Supercharged!, I found this to be more detailed in every aspect but estimating combustion chamber temps with regard to detonation. But other than that one point, this is an excellent book, written by someone with obvious experience in building, tuning and modifying forced induction cars. One excellent feature is that it reveiws getting power out of several turbo cars (like Subies) and talks specifically about the compramises in thier design.

I highly reccomend it to anyone who wants to understand the hows and whys of getting more out of cars like ours....

Matt
