Question Understanding FI

Sup All, I've been lurking around these forums for a few years now. Well since the Raymer FI days to be a little more exact. I'm pretty much a noob with FI and dont own an LSX yet. The whole forced induced LSX thing interests me, and I would like to learn more about FI. My question is this. Are there any good books, software, anything really that will go into detail on how turbo charging or super charging works. TIA

Yea, Maximum Boost by Corky Bell is the best $20 you'll spend on your turbo setup, period. Just buy it!
