Good Information

I would recommend the N/A forum on Tuners as there are some very knowledgeable members on there when it comes to N/A related issues/questions:

www.howstuffworks.com

it gives you a general idea about how motor work, and other things.

Its not specific to DSM's but theres some good info on there.

That's one of my favorite sites, and I would highly recommend it.

How do I have such an interest in cars? I don't know. I supposed because when I am working on a car, even if I'm just learning what I'm doing, I feel very relaxed. Its like, some thing about being in it is relaxing, because then I dont have to deal with bullshit from anyone else, just the car ;) which I am ok with because most of the time, I like cars more than people!

I think that "how stuff works" website is probably exactly what I was going for. Thanks!

seriously, get a chiltons or hanes and just read the shit out of it. As bernie said, systems are systems. Every car IS different, but most cars work off of the same principle. If you read through an entire book, you may not know what your doing, but when it comes time to take care of something, you will have a lot better idea of what your doing and what youre working with!

I still say go to www.2gnt.com . It's a site dedicated to 2g Non Turbos.

Yah, but I already said I didn't want to devote my learning to my car. Yes, I love my car, and and yeah I want to know about it, but I want to know about all cars.

Just tear into your car and figure it out. Where stuff goes. What it controlls. Thats what I did. Before I had no clue what engines did or the parts of them. Then I rebuilt a 6Bolt and put it in my car and now I feel like I know 100X more then I did. Thats at least the way I work.

just start experimenting with your car. and dont worry about reading up on stuff. when u tune it up, you'll learn stuff :)
