Turbochargers are incredibly appealing to performance enthusiasts because of their ability to add free horsepower - and lots of it - to almost any engine or vehicle. Today, it seems easier than ever for the average gearhead to harness the incredible power building capability of turbochargers. Those who want to increase the performance of their existing turbo system, or those who want to add a turbo to an existing engine, have never had too many components, vendors, and information resources to choose from. Unfortunately, this wealth of options and opinions can be hard to understand and navigate. That's where this book comes in.
Author Jay Miller discusses the various components of a turbocharger and explains how to decode complicated turbocharger model numbers, compressor amps, and other specs. If you run into problems with your turbo system, there's also a detailed chapter on failure analysis to help you figure out what went wrong and how to fix it.
