Default Anyone ever seen this article a custom turbo kit?

http://www.cse.uconn.edu/~yele....html

there's the link, read it over and let me know if you think thats a legitimate site to try and base a custom build off of? Also I'm wondering what a garrett T3 at 8 PSI is capable of power wise with a stock B18B? Thanks in advance.

I agree, I learned a thing or two about turbo from that site when I first started. it's decent to follow, but there are things that he mentioned that I would change

Definately a good write up.

I originally read it a while back when I was planning my setup.

There is some good info on there but I don't agree with everything that is said.

It's good information to use but it's not the bible of turbo kits by any means.

It's a good writeup and I admit I used it when I was learning a bit, it just doesn't go into turbo sizing and efficiency as much as I'd like. If you want a real good read, that will actually help you realize some of the more important aspects involved in the process, pick up Corky Bell's "Maximum Boost" book, best book I ever spend a few grand over reading.
