Well I got my Turbo Timer today it is the Greddy full auto turbo timer. I got it from www.RPMmotoring.com it was 75 bucks = 10 for shipping. so 85 not bad huh??

So now that I have it is there anyone that can give me detailed and correct instructions on how to install it.

I ran into a guy around here that has a Orange MSP I told him about this website and forums but he has yet to sign on. He has the same Turbo Timer installed in his car and he said he just used some wire nuts and it was easy as hell.

Do a search and you will find install notes with pictures.

You pull the center collumn piece off (2 piece) with 3 screws and the bottom lower section pulls off. Inside there is a plug with 6 wires. 2 RED, 1 Orange/black, 1 Black/White, and 2 Blue.

The Black/White is the ACC wire, you can use any of the two RED's as Constant +12V, the Blue wire next to the Black/White is the IGN ON wire.

Hope that helps.

Just FYI -- Spoolin has black & silver ones for around the same price (and it supports his turbo research!).. :P

Well I installed it and it is working great.

Thanks to I-am-Chris and everyone that helped me to install it.

I will post pics sometime next week when I get to use a friends camera.

Will it accurately increment the time and shut off properly? OrangeMSP's won't increment time based on actual boost usage, but I'm unsure as to how his was actually setup.

The Greddy one that I have starts with a set time that you pick as a minimum run time I use 20 seconds as a base. Then it adds a second to that time for every second spent above 2000 rpm. That is the "HI" setting on the "LOW" setting it is 3000 rpm.

But what I didnt know is that whenever you are below 2000 rpm it counts down back to the original 20 seconds. Which is good if you do driving for long periods then have to drive through the city, it reduces the amount of time that it will run after you take the key out.

I just wish there was a way to wire it so that it could be running with the timer and I could still set the alarm. "I am Chris" said he knows sombody that can do it.
