Progress has been slow on my new buggy engine,

Maximum Boost Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems
- This is the only turbo book that has been recently updated. Because it is relatively new it is also geared more toward fuel injection. It is also not very technical and seems to be aimed more toward the guy who owns a turbo car and wants to explain how they work to the guy at the office water-cooler. I would consider it a good first book. There are more technical details in the book: Turbochargers by Hugh MacInnes. Both are worth having if you're going turbo.

Turbochargers
- This is an older book and some of the turbo information is outdated. However because it is older it has more carburetor related information in it. It will also give you a better understanding of Turbo maps and is more technical in nature than "Maximum Boost."

I didn't plan on writing a recipe for this. I hope that some of you will benefit from it, although it may require a little investigative work. Here's the basic run down...

AutoSpeed - DIY Detonation Detection, Part 1
- Sensing when an engine is detonating has become more and more important in recent years. In older cars, the reduction in the lead content of fuel has meant that detonation is more likely to occur - especially when the comp ratio is wound up to give good performance. In factory turbo engines, dramatically increased boost means that detonation is very probable. Build an inexpensive detonation microphone with these instructions.
