Quick question turbo timer

[BamfiNogaroS4]

I am looking to buy a turbo timer and just wondering what you guys are running or suggest.....

Thanks, Justin

[Daness373]

A bunch of people are either running the Greddy or the Apex'i. The Greddy fits right into the cupholder and looks good. But the Apex'i is very small and easy to use, and looks good as well. Both are very affordable and easy to find used in the Classifieds if you wanna go even cheaper. Hope this helps. Scott

I have the Apex and it fits into the space in front of the cupholder perfectly.

What have people been putting in the ashtray?

[BamfiNogaroS4]

If you guys have some pics that would be great !!!

[ThePaintballGuy]

+1 to the pics and also how hard are these to install??? Does anyone have a writeup on it? I have one sitting at my house that I want to install but am not sure how to.

Thanks for the idea. I have the apexi but was planning to put it above my steering wheel in front of the cluster.

[dc878mmm]

I had my mechinic do it for me but I'm pretty sure he took off the center console and the cover next to the ebrake.

i have the blitz dual turbo timer its good too it also has a boost gauge with warning

I have an old school greddy III, usually find them cheap on ebay, really easy to wire, this might help if your trying to get your cupholder out

[BamfiNogaroS4]

Thanks everyone that was alot of help, I checked all of them out and the Blitz dual turbo timer looks like exactly what I am looking for seeing how I dont have a boost gauge, plus a turbo timer.....I found this one with free shipping !

^^^^That's the TT I have and I like it. I don't recall now since it's been two years, but I think mine was modded to show up red at night in order to match the instrument lighting a bit more.

Yeah I was thinking I will put it above the steering wheel but I ll have to look into getting it to match the instruments that would look damn good for sure....

Im gonna drop mine under my e-brake too...and here i thought i was a genius but kudos to the pioneer I have the same one havn't installed yet thought waiting for my speakers to come in

[JDM EJ1 95]

I have that one too ^^ like it a lot..

boost warning has been useful for me.

its a good unit.

Mine is installed on the little visor above the mirror. and can flip it up to hide it.. very clean install

[BamfiNogaroS4]

What exactly is the boost warning? Stupid question but just thought I would ask....

If you're boosting higher PSI then what is set on the gauge then it warns you.

Damn thats clean. Its crazy how the turbo timer fits so perfectly in the cupholer.

[BamfiNogaroS4]

Wow very clean I like it !

I have the viper 5900 alarm system with built in turbo timer, remote start and 1 mile range. Its a rerally good system and the TT works like a charm and dont ever have to mount it nywhere. all hidden underneath the dash

[speedydragon]

how does a turbo timer work on a manual car? FWIW I have one on my TIP. I can't see how the engine on a manual can stay on if the clutch is disengaged in first gear :|

[rcjustin]

stay in neutral when leaving the car, use the ebrake, and bypass the clutch switch

ahhh gotcha.

[BamfiNogaroS4]

One more newb question just wondering if this has happened to anyone els? But every time I hit the breaks right when I start to let off, so the peddle is pressed down with about 10% of pressure and letting off it, on the passenger side front the breaks make a loude almost like rubbing noise/vibration sound. Breaks still have plenty ofpad left on them so I am very confused on what this might be anyone know?????

Also my head light covers/lense is so rock pitted it looks horrible is there anyway to get it to look clear agin, like wet sand etc, or could I buy a new lense???

Good thing I searched and came across this thread. I think I want to get a timer soon and fit it by the cupholder.

Does that one from Apex glow red or anything to match the inside lighting during the night?

EDIT:

Ok I'm looking here. $20 for a timer? Can't be...

[dc878mmm]

It glows red or blue. Check it out.

Ok I've been looking at that Apex one because I want to fit it by the E-Brake. Ebay is showing it at $85.00 but that site I posted above says $20.00. WTF? Lol.

EDIT: Nevermind, it's late and I'm acting like a dumbass. Didn't notice the $99.00 one.
