This possibly should be in the F/I section, but I figured MSP owners need this more than other people who plan to turbo since it seems like this is a lot of people's first turbo car.
compression vs. boost (http://probetalk.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=52029)
intercooler information (http://probetalk.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1701001872)
what is detonation (http://probetalk.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1700956591)
some general turbo info, lots of probe specific stuff but also some good info (http://probetalk.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1701028998)
All of this stuff is stolen from probetalk.com (obviously) but i thought it was good stuff and many people could benefit from a little reading and understanding so people could make their own decisions as to what is the best way to go, what parts are best, etc...
i also recommend http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0837601606/qid=1064103767/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/104-0237730-5323932?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 but the others are free :)

Cool thanks man! I'm thinking of doing alot of upgrades to the turbo next year and definetly will be looking to Terry and my brother for advice if not parts. Lookin for at least another 50-150hp gain by next year.
