maximum boost, can you handle it?
i apologise for those who have these but i've just read two books that anyone interested in more power and better handling might wanna take a look at.
"maximum boost" corky bell obviously this is based on turbo installations (its quite old now - goes up to about 1980) but i think it would be a good read for turbo cynics as well as fans. theres loads of easy to read (thank you) technical stuff thats very enlightening. lots of the topics really surprised me, especially a section on the loads an engine withstands, engine life expectancy, strength of gearboxes etc. very informative (if a little outdated, but will teach the basics) . "how to make your car handle" fred phun again an old book, but the rules haven't changed. anyone with a 911 who wants to get to grips with the handling could do worse than have this on their book shelf.
