Default ****Forced Induction FAQ*******

Welcome to the Forced Induction FAQ. If you are reading this congratulations you are educating yourself and helping Tampa Racing's tech section to hopefully grow into a vast area of tech info.
  • The purpose of this FAQ is to encourage other members to ask more in depth questions rather the troublesome, vague general ones we have all seen here before.
  • If you are new to the FI(forced induction) world, hopefully this faq will be able to give you a better understanding of the concepts of FI components and how they work. This is going to be a community FAQ. I will start off with a few, and encourage everyone to take a little time and post links to information they feel would be valuable in here.
  • If you are sick of seeing people posting "how much will i make/what times will i run" etc. Find the answer or write something up and PM a link or writeup it to me, or just post it here. I witht he help of the mods will check this post periodically and arrange your posts for quick reference.
  • hopefully we can make this as extensive and organized as the honda-tech FAQ.so start diggin out your saved info and post it up.

I'm surprised you were able to get out the store with that big "SUCKER" sign affixed to your back.
