Why do I still feel like I haven't learned a thing?



I will say this. A lot of what I've read has been very scientific. I even tried to do the VE of our engine, but in the end I figured, 'why?'.

There is a lot of good stuff in these. It is funny how something I read one day I can't understand now matter what, and then 6 months later I read it again and it's too simple.

hey man, I wouldn't mind reading one of those. If you wanna rent one to me that'd be great.

That just shows that you are a hands on kinda learner like me. I could read it ten times, but until I see it or actually do it, it doesn't make 100% sense.

C'mon, man. Don't insult me.

I figure I'll probably still be owing you until I leave the island. I would have been happy to help you with your turbo kit if you weren't doing it as an all-nighter.

OT: 240hp. Awesome!

Hey, just tell me which book you want.

Hopefully you're a smarter man than me.

forced induction performance tuning and one of the turbo charger books. Whichever one has the most equations on turbos.
