A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Those books served it's purpose back in the day. No reason to use them now with the CD version manual available. Also with Steve's site and help from the bulletin boards with more up to date info.

Back then all I had was a few magazines along with Kirban Newsletter & GS Extra so I used it a lot, but now it's just something from my early days with these cars.
When I got my first computer the first thing I found was the car sites.
These days it's easy to learn if your willing to read & ask questions.  :supz:

Except you have to figure out whom to listen to as there is a lot of knee jerk info put out by  people who are repeating what they heard from someone else and so on....

There are some out there that still today that advise someone to adjust the tps when it is clearly in the window to fix some problem, etc.

Or, guys who tell people with basically stock cars to buy a big turbo because it is the latest and greatest without understanding it only works better in certain conditions....
