Turbos
Ok... the search is being a little bitch for me right now, so forgive this lame post.
Anyone have more information about turbos in general, and then more about the turbo on the tii? I just want to read all about it so i dont blow up my engine and the like. So i can see what kind of electronics I want to get and the like. Kind of confusing but basically I want alot of links/info to good literature about turbocharging so I can apply that to my car. IE: how much boost can the stock go to before i have to change secondary injectors, learn more about the wastegate/bov system of things, what kind of octane fuel i can get away with at each level of boost (assuming low boost = low octane, high boost = high octane) etc etc. I am a n00b looking to learn alot about this system i have *never* dealt with. Thanks!

For turbo systems in general, you should seriously read maximum boost. It talk about any of the today **** like, water/propane injection etc, but in general, it is an excellent book. Its pretty complex, but if your good with math, you'll understand exactly why you should choose a particular size turbo for a particular engine for a particular torque curve, etc.
Really good ****. Everyone in the single turbo section swears by it, its 'thee' book.
I've read it, but I don't fully understand it, with time im sure I will
