Winfield Hill
Cambridge University Press

Great refresher and then some

Fantastic, Easy-to-read, Informative Book

Maximum Boost: Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems (Engineering and Performance)
Corky Bell
Bentley Publishers
, 1997
Great book
It lived up to the expectations. It tries to cover everything about tuning turbocharged engines, so not every aspect is as detailed as the next. Still a great buy, although the images look a bit old fashioned.

Beginner's Guide to Reading Schematics

Anna L. Lisk
McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics
, 1991
good place to start
I'm not a particularly techie sort of person, but I found I needed to have a grasp of the electronics of some of the equipment I use (I'm a musician). Most beginners books are overwhelming in theory and completeness and end up more confusing than anything else. This ...
