Each of these are about $20.00. At the least, check them out of the library and give them a cursory glance...each author takes a unique tack on the wide world of Honda / Acura tuning.
Ancas covers the whole spectrum of mods, at the expense of some detail.
Pettitt is very thorough, focusing on chassis setup, functional aero, tire tech and FWD drag performance.
Kojima is one of the best technical writers alive. His book covers every possible motor setup, including hybrids, NA & FI, Nitrous, literally everything. And the info is presented in a truly understandable format.
BTW, lest I forget... Welcome to HAN. :thumbup:
