As above, looking to top up my knowlege on tuning..
I have heard Corky bell mentioned before but the write ups on his work say that the books are a bit out of date??? Helppppp Rob :) |
Maximum boost, Corky Bell
21st century performance tuning - Julian Edgar 4 stroke performance tuning - Alexander G Bell |
There's a new one by Graham Bell - "Forced Induction Performance Tuning: A Practical Guide to Supercharging and Turbocharging" which is exceedingly thorough, and covers exactly the right ground. It was only published at the beginning/mid this year, so is about as up-to-date as they come. It even has a picture of a scoob on the front :) - with reason, as many of the examples he uses have the scoob (such as measuring all the points along the pre-turbo inlet path to show where the pressure drops are).
In short, there's little in there which isn't useful/informative/relevant. |
Thanks for the info nom, my christmas list has another entry!
The A G Bell books are excellent all round, I've found hte very easy to read, and they relate work to real engines. Paul |
Bosch Automotive Handbook is good, but doesn't advise on tuning. Gives a good understanding of ECU control though and a lot more. Some would say it is dull, I actually enjoy reading it :eek:
|
Thanks for the Julian Edgar one - it's now on my Christmas list :D!
|
Thanks people...
