Where did you put your turbo timer?

[pluto316]

I did a search and it didn't work out too well, so..


Where did you put your turbo timers? I got the HKS Type-0 and am installing it this week when I get a chance. I was thinking under the center console where that little pocket is before the cupholders.. Know what I mean?

:confused: don't know what you mean? You bought a turbo timer and now your selling it?

I need to get a TT, could that potentially effect my car? cause it to stall or any other issues?

No, I did a search for a topic and couldn't find it.

I am very excited about not having to sit in my car for a minute or two when I get some place waiting for my car to cool down.

Credit should go to AGR because he gave me the idea on the location.

is it possible to mount on on top near the visor? i was gunna look into getting a bracket to mount mine up there... iunno if its pposs tho.

I have mine mounted on the steering column. This way I can look at what I'm boosting w/o having to really take my eyes off the road. yes it is obvious, but it's black, and my backlight is orange and matches the gauges so it looks perfect sitting in the driver's seat.

That is a good idea if you are using your TT for that purpose. At times I wish mine was there. However, I park frequently where my car is unattended and didn't want any electronics showing so this was the best place for me.

yeah, i used to have mine mounted on the steering column, but ever since my car got broken into ive relocated it

I'm mounting mine in the same location... under the foglight switch... as soon as I find what wires to tap into from the ECU (scared of the airbag).

[MazdaspeedZOOM]

I like where I have mine, easy to read and see. I was thinking about putting it near the switches but to me that isn't the easiest place to look, and I like being able to see the boost gauge and such.

I have my greddy full auto timer and profec b spec 2 BC mounted on the steering column also.
hey servoeyes how do you like the spool hardpipes? you got any pics of them?

[servoeyes]

Still on the wishlist! :D They probably will stay there until I get a job in the space field and move (hopefully closer to Terry...but we'll see if anyone in DC wants to hire me!)

My HKS Type 1 is on the steering column as well.

I thought about the pocket under the switches and the center pocket by the drink holders, but neither is easy to see while driving and I find the Digital Tach/shift light useful. What I would love to do is somehow mod the top of the steering column so the turbo timer is "integrated" into the steering column maybe with fiberglass or something, seems like something that would be really expensive for what it is.

This will make me sound like a complete idiot, but...

I did not know there was a little pocket there under my switch panel. I had to actually get out of my chair and go look to see if that was an early model thing. But hey, I have one too.

Dohhhh!!!
