Back in the day,before Mr Bob Keller sold Turbonetics to the Wabtec, (A very large industrial engine company in Europe), and Wabtec purchased Precision Turbo, Turbonetics provided Turbo Maps in their catalogs.

When they and other companies went to the web all of that disappeared.

Precision did not have the capability to generate Turbo Maps like Turbonetics and Garrett. Borg Warner has been in the Turbo Business for some time but did not own any Turbo Businesses until they bought KKK in Europe and
formed the Boost department for BW. This Boost Department was led by
a former Garrett Boost Guy Tom Grissom. Grissom and Harry (Precision)
had been friends for many years. Grissom was Director of all BW Turbo
Systems in the world until he retired.

Matchbot is a good program.
