Product Description
This supersonic tome describes methods of boosting the power of motorcycle engines by getting more fuel-air mixture into the cylinders. Other approaches to power boosting rely on improving the efficiency of existing fuel-air paths, or giving up performance in one RPM band to gain it in another. This book concerns forced induction--the art and science of cramming more fuel-air mixture into the engine. It will give you a thorough understanding of the principles involved and the practical matters of putting those principles to work. Included are helpful tips on which equipment to buy, how to use it, and most important, how to prevent self-destruction! Many helpful charts and diagrams help you understand just what's important and how things work. If you are planning to apply turbocharging, supercharging or nitrous oxide injection to a motorcycle, you'll find this authoritative book to be a valuable and money-saving aid.

 Following his advice cost me thousands of dollars of pain January 22, 2001
6 out of 10 found this review helpful
I followed Joe Haile's advice but the vendors he recommended to me took my money and after many years of holding (and misusing) my motorcycle and money they did not deliver the goods and services they promised. I had to sue the listed vendors Luftmeister, RB Racing, Matt Capri, & Bob Behn for fraud and it cost me thousands of dollars and my motorcycle does not run right after many years of their supposed help. I bought this book and called Joe Haile many times and his advice cost me thousands of dollars of pain.
 Nitrous information lacking July 29, 2000

I bought the book to do a paper on nitrous oxide racing in motorcycles. The nitrous chapter was very small and seemed to refer to one company too much. The other two chapters were much better. Why did the author not cover nitrous and turbos or superchargers?

Just echoing the other reviews. The subject coverage is great, the information is almost all applicable to more than just motorcycles, and the directory of contacts is invaluable.
