Recommendation: Book about mapping/tuning turbo cars

[Jonas_R]

Since I'm going to start to play with my VEMS ecu soon, I thought it would be nice to have a book with some general guidelines etc.

So I'm looking for a book that would be good to read/use when one wants to map/tune a turbo car.

So if anybody has any good suggestions, that would be great

look for megamanual which is free on the web

I was also thinking of a book that was more general and not VEMS specific.

But will have a look at megamanual and the link

Dave Walkers book http://www.amazon.co.uk/Engine-Manag...ef=pd_sim_b_17

megamanual.com is the most comprehensive guide you will find. its about getting an engine running regardless of type using megasquirt of which vems is a subset.

megamanual talks about idel types etc also so is a good insight into engines in general.

If your tuning a VEMS ecu I can't understand why your wouldn't want to read megamanual and the VEMS wiki guide and read a generic book

This is also a good read http://195.159.109.134/vemsuk/forum/...opic,97.0.html

@Jamo
I dont mind reading the Megamanual and the VEMS link, but I just wanted something that I could read up on the basics of tuning a turbo car with electronic fuel injection

I was thinking that it would be smart to read some generic first and then move on the Megamanual etc.

megamanual is a generic book. its free too. take a look. see what you think

Oki will do so .
