i'm pretty new to performance modding, although i do have some very basic knowledge. is there a book that would be good to read to further my knowledge?

I don't know about books, per se, but the internet is filled with all the knowledge you'd ever need as long as you can search for it and weed through all the bull.

like i said, if you wanna read up on turbos or superchargers, or infact, anything written by corky bell is awesome. Maximum boost is my favorite

just search online and get a Hayne's manual, that's really it

I didn't know a thing on how to work on cars before summer of 08, now I'm confident I can do anything suspension-wise, along with anything interior and some engine(bolt ons) work

It's worth a shot
