It was a present for my brother and I was afraid it wasn't what he wanted, but he loved it!

As a woman who only has a cursory knowledge about cars and all the potential one can hold, I found this book to be particularly helpful and written in simple enough and very clear language that enabled me as a novice modder to complete my own projects without too much outside help. Definitely A+++++.
 A warning against over doing it July 28, 2005

If you are thinking about modifying your car and have the "need for speed", read this book first. It'll give you fair warning about what happens legally and financially if you don't plan your modification properly. Bascially before you install that race-ready ECU, turbo or exhaust think of the repercussions it'll cause legally with the environment and the police. The information is very basic but useful to know and far ranging.
 Definitely for Dummies! July 19, 2005

Based on other customer reviews, I expected to see some real content in this book. Very disappointed to find an extremely sketchy outline of possible considerations for performance mods. Not really any details at all on any of the subjects offered.
If you are truly a car mod "dummy" then perhaps this book is for you, to give you some very basic information on avenues you can pursue to upgrade your car. Otherwise, if you are seeking anything in the way of real technical details on how to proceed with upgrades, you'll be sorely disappointed!
Amazing book, very easy to read May 21, 2005

This is a very well thought out book, it covers a wide range of information but doesnt seem disjointed at all. Helps alot when trying to drill through all the hype that aftermarket manufacturers use. Also it is a very easy and quick to read book. Highly recommended!!!
