Book Reviews of Maximum Boost: Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems (Engineering and Performance)

Book Review: Did not meet my expectations
Summary: 2 Stars

There is some good theory in this book, but it is sparse. I feel this book is more an introduction to turbos, rather than the highly technical how to do it all yourself, book I was looking for. I would not feel comfortable picking out a turbo for my car, after reading this book. This book was a huge letdown for me.
