Please, both of you, keep this ON list. It sounds as though there is
considerable interest in turbocharging from many of us here.
Dan, you seriously should consider writing a book, your explanations are so
well crafted and easy to understand, among the best I've read. And you have
both the experience and technical background for such a work of automotive
literature.
Larry? Your listing of the "price" of the turbo lunch is certainly valid.
Keep it on the list, some good reading is always what we're looking for
here!
