Default Could someone make a sticky or FAQ for turbo technicals?

Just stuff like, where to go to learn how to read compressor maps..

What different exhaust wheels mean, what is a clip, ball bearings and what they do, different styles of compressor wheels, what inducer and exducer measurements mean, terms like choke flow..

While I know a decent ammount of this, there is slight grey area that i find hard to explain sometimes while trying to talk turbos to people who ask me questions. I'd also like to learn more about some of the more technical side of things so I dont have to go asking enthalpy every month about if such and such a turbo is good or not.. (seems to be small discrepencies in turbos like the GT25R where nobody seems to know exactly what GT25R is or what they are selling except Scott...)

Anyhow how about it mods? I think it'd be a great thing to sticky as an FAQ in this forum that would stop a lot of questions...

why dont you just see if they can make you the moderator? i mean, im sure that these guys have other threads to lok after and what not but i dont think that it would hurt to get a little extra help.
