Default Some links for tech articles and ways to choose best turbo size

I was bored in class so I was searching the net for info and things to read, I stumbled across this site and it seems to be very informative and they have good deals on remanufactured turbos, which is good for the budget people...

http://www.turbocalculator.com/index.html

They have tech articles to read also along with compressor maps of many turbos that guys run on hondas....Good info site if anything, Im sure others have seen it but I just wanted to share so maybe people could read instead of posting the same questions day in and day out...

Some tech articles they have are:
Turbo vs SC
How turbo works
Custom turbo kits
reading compressor maps
intercooler theory
water injection theory

I just thought this would be something good for noobs to turbos and boost and while im in this sharing mood here is another good article to read on detonation, one of the best I have ever seen written....

http://www.misterfixit.com/deton.htm

Another good site for choosing a turbo, plug in the info and it gives you the info u need...

Too cool... thanks I just plugged in the #s for my desired compressor and it just spits the answers back out That was a great relief!

Speaking of the detonation detection, does anyone have good info on where to pick up a Whisper 2000 or the like? I haven't seen any locally and I hear they're only available in Australia now.
