That book IS the absolute bible of turbocharging! I bought a copy of Maximum Boost 2 years ago, and I've probably read it cover to cover 10 times!

Default Re:Calculating intercooler size
where is the stick formula? I want to know if bigger is better for only 8 psi? I know I wont go past that. I'll probobly stick with 6 or 7 psi. I currenly have a pretty big probe intercooler. I read somewhere that it will give me lag and wont help me at the low psi that I'm at. Should I just get a little dsm gen 1 intercooler?
