gmJake Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I've been reading Turbo Real World High Performance Turbocharger Systems by Jay K. Miller and Maximum Boost, designing, testing and installing turbocharger systems by Corky Bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawnss Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 So how was it? Was itjust the basics of a turbo or did it go into depth? I had this book but never had a chance to go through it. I loaned the book to a buddy and that's the last time I saw it. Wondering if its worth getting it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detjoe Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 so what is your expert opinion on the BW s400...As I read more and more about turbos I find the Ls1 is so efficient that they really like the bigger exhaust wheel... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmJake Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I'm just kidding. The mathematics are beyond me. I'm just reading the pictures. This truck has been a pain in the ass from the day i trailered it home. I'll never figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmJake Posted January 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Sorry I am slow, but your got twins! so what issues are you having?? I would love to see someone else get a twin ss up and running decent. Mostly oil leaks from crankcase pressure. With help here, not a drop lost in a month. Ford hi-boost pcv valve and the oil cap vent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warden Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Good for you Jake..Nice setup.Stick with it and you will get it right.It's important to have people who have done it before to help you.I was lucky.My C5 didn't leak a drop from day one with twins on a LQ9.I know a bunch of guys running a similar setup and I belong to the corvetteforum.com.Those guys have done it all.Here is a link of me giving it to a BBC Camaro who had a DART block and heads.My inlet pipe had come off the pass earlier and they pulled me right off the return road to run this guy.I only made 4#s of boost and still gave it to him.
