I love the feeling of 300 hp under the hood of a car. but i have been grossly misinformed by performance stores, websites, and this site(ref. the shaft of the vortech). i have gone back and done some research into an area where i am already somewhat familiar. Turbochargers are great at higher altitudes and they do have other advantages. but the biggest disadvantage will still being an advantage, is that they use the exhaust. and exhaust creates a termendous amount of heat. and heat is not the friend of an engine. but again, i'm sorry to those i offended. i've been grossly misinformed.
Welcome to class: Today we are going to NOT believe EVERYTHING on the internet and head out to the Public Library for some old fashion research and reading.
Even in reference books you will need to see past the opinion of the author and see the facts for what they really are.
If your really interested in becoming more educated about FI, I may suggest starting with some books written by Corky Bell.
Even in certain circles you can be corrupted and misled by opinions of engin builders and racers.
