Any good intro books on how electronics work, preferably ones that start with the very basics and end up complex.

just stick a paper clip in the wall socket. that should give you good idea.

The art of electronics by horowitz, starts with what is voltage and current, ends with voodoo.

Why even reply when you have no idea what you are talking about? I know you have a trip on and are trying to be smart, but really. Have an actual turbo, so maybe next time you will know the difference.

The electronic systems in turbos aren't that complicated unless you have an electronically actuated boost controller.

Go back to /o/. Bob is a faggot that got hurt that we called him out on his bs and went to /o/ to beg for help. I am from /o/ myself, but really, this doesn't have anything to do with /o/.

Generally, turbos don't have electronics and the input to the ECU comes from the MAP/MAF that reports the change in intake charge density. Bleed off valves are often purely mechanically pressure based.

Anyway, with that said, this thread is not about FI.

I am not OP, but I have a similar goal. I have heard this book is a bit more characterized as a reference book than as a beginner's book. Is that true? How long does it take to learn electronics from this book? It seems like a lot.
