Good idea! If you do a search and check out the things we've seen before section. You'll find all the information that you need.

The book "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell has alot of good information about how turbo systems work.

i will definitely agree on getting the book by corky bell. I got it and read it and it is just amazing how much useful information is in that book. It's a must buy for people that don't know much about turbos.

yep great site emoji

Try browing the turbo forum from like the beginning. Sure it takes a long time to go through all tht stuff but you'll learn a lot by just looking at old posts. YOu can use the search engine also to narrow the subject down.

I didn't know a lot about turbos also b4 I installed the turbo. Most of what you will learn will be when you install the turbo yourself. AFter the first time you'll be a pro. Why do you think they make you build RC car? So you know how it worx and if it breaks you'll know how to fix it.
