Default reading material.....

I want to learn FI info, especially about turbos and parts. I have a 35 NX wet shot for now, but in January will be starting to piece together a turbo kit.

what magazine(s) do you suggest i subscribe to to learn about Honda tuning and forced induction? Any good books that are thorough and cover turbocharging Honda's well? i already know most of the basics, but want something that'll give me some info on new products and in-depth info on turboing. I'd like as much of the reading to be honda-specific as possible.

thanks for any info.

also, what's the most technically informative magazine out there? i don't care about show cars or anything like that, i just want to read about engine and car performance/building. Which magazine(s) would you recommend i subscribe to for that? Import tuner? Honda tuning? Sportcompact car?
My dilemma is that i usually buy a different car magazine each time because one time one will be informative and the other time another will be worth me buying. Is there one that's consistently good?

For what you want to learn you would be better off sitting at your computer in the archieves searching for what you want rather than buying some flashy mag! There is more info on here that one could eve find! I have learned an ***-load from searching!

haha, i actually will/do at my schools expense...lol. i have a whole accordian folder filled w/ all car info, from brakes to electronics to fuel to internal engine....not just FI info.

better than a book b/c it's ALL info i didn't know before and directly pertained to my next mod or install.

so, any suggestion on a magazine?
