I looking at turbo's for my 13B. From things I've read, a Garrett T04B
has the plenty of capacity and stamina to keep up in an aircraft
application.

1. Any issues with that Turbo I should be aware of - or is there a
better alternative?
2. Any installation extra's I'm going to need other than figuring out
the exhaust plumbing?
3. Are there any resources/books I read up on installation?

I'm pretty ignorant on turbo's in general so make sure your replies are
"dumbed-down" for me ;-)

Thanx

The classic work is HP Books Turbochargers by Hugh MacInnes.
Maximum Boost by Corky Bell is also pretty good.

Just make sure you keep the intake charge temperature below 140 F
to prevent detonation.
