Description: We`ve all heard of the Porsche Turbo models, but few know exactly how they were developed. This book takes us back to the first application of a turbocharger to a Porsche engine and chronicles the development that led to the latest Porsche Turbo models. It includes a description of the first patent application for a turbocharger in 1905. It was 20 years before turbochargers appeared on marine diesel engines and about 50 more years before the first Porsche Turbo. It is a great story about a great car and is a must read for any Porsche fan or sports car enthusiast.
