Book Reviews of Maximum Boost: Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems (Engineering and Performance)
Book Review: Excellent book, needs a summary.
Summary: 4 Stars
All of the information in this book is up to date and direct to the point in each chapter. The information and calculations needed to assemble and install a system are in this book. It would be nice to have a summary of the steps to figure out a turbo system, but one can do their own outline and summary with a little time and attention. All in all, a good book with great information that even a beginner can understand with a little study.Book Review: Great book all around.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book for a beginner looking for an in depth but not overbearing look at designing a turbocharger system for their vehicle. A must have for developing a well conceived turbo system. The book incorporates basic mathematics with many common sense ideas to forge an understanding of the dynamics of choosing and building turbocharging systems for specific applications. I personally am currently building a turbocharging kit for my vehicle and consider this book an essential tool.Book Review: everything you need to know and more
Summary: 5 Stars
turbo charger's bible. if you had questions or wondered whether or not this was something you could do yourself...or even if you just wanted to better understand the concept, you will not be dissapointed with this book.Book Review: This book is fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars
I've looked at a number of other consumer-oriented turbocharger books and they have all been poorly written, not well illustrated and out of date. This book is perfect - it mixes a good introduction to four stroke engines, theoretical and practical aspects of turbocharging and several interesting project cars.

Book Review: Very good book!
Summary: 5 Stars
Money well spent. Corky explains all aspects of turbocharging. Good high level theoretical treatment, and better yet, lots of practical information backed up by real life examples that test different turbo designs in different automobile types.
