Default Turbo Timer

Hi

New to the board

Hoping for some help on getting a turbo timer fitted to my wrx
had some nice improvements done bigger exhaust system and all new air induction kit put on.

Plus waiting on a Prodrive ecu to be fitted

But cant seem to find anyone who can put a turbo timer on.

Live in county durham

Any help would be great

Matty

can i ask a question? WHY!!!!!

they are a pointless gimmik and a complete waste of money.You dont need one,just drive the last mile home off bost and turn the engine off immediately.I hope you arent one of these people that think they have to let the engine run for 5 mins before driving anywhere

HTH

Judging people you know nothing about.

I was advised to get one by prodrive when the car was booked in there.
So i bought one from elsewhere because they quoted silly prices.

Rein in the testosterone please folks

A new member comes on asking for help - could you please provide it without the sarcasm?


(incidentally, driving off boost for the last mile or so will do the job - but the turbo timer DOES mean you don't need to worry.)

2 posts and insulting people already - good idea, there is a reason prodrive recommend them and thats becayse they sell them as you pointed out.

i suggest you drop the attitude with me, and to Kieran - as for a new member asking for help a simple search would of advised him that the general opinion is that they are a waste of money and he is better off spending his hard earned on something else

and for the record i wasnt judging you simply commenting on the 2nd post in this thread, how about we all kiss and make up?
