Corky Bell - Maximum boost and some other stuff

Re: Help with school/turbo project
 

just started reading it and it will help you greatly :)

Also, go to barns$noble and go to the automotive section, they have a very wide selection, from tuning EFI to learning how to select a cam to how to build a motor. Forced induction is included. Be prepared to spend a few hundred on literature alone though.

cool deal. i dont have to buy the books i really just need some sources to say i used. i know more than enough to complete the whole project and get a 100 with no problem. this will be the 5th turbo car ive built but the 1st ive personaly owned. ive finaly got enough efi know how to tackle it for my own low budget build up. i plan on going with:

93 LS
powerstroke turbo (big yes. but free? yes! :y)
custom top mount manifold
big enough cheap intercooler (prob a cut down powerstroke)
450's or 550's
custom oil lines for the turbo
LC-1 wideband
chrome or uberdata
possibly the ostrich
external waste gate of some sort
aftermarket audi style bov (hoses clamp on each side)

if anyone has any other info to share, websites, book titles, anything id appriciate it.


I NEED SOME INJECTORS!!!

depending on the size of your library... you should find some good books there. There is a library by my house with ALOT of automotive books. I think they even had the Corky Bell book.
