M8 , i can't find the thread now, but as long as i know that TT is the waste vof money, cause subaru turbo is cooled different way, so we do not need TT....

I"m not b100 % sure, but i've seen that thread ages ago.... somewhere here...

Does this look the right connection or will it require a harness?

for the record, i got a TT off a chap on here £10 deliverd. i chopped that connector block off and cripped onto the relavant wires under steering wheel. Saves you on a harness, and is just as safe!

you need a perm live, and a ingition live. i worked out which wire was what on the TT with a 9v battery. i had no instructions with mnine so had to use my inish! lol

I cant tell you what wires right now as its dark and cold out there!!!
i will look friday as im at work very early 2morrow and will be once again dark and cold!!

If you fancy working out whats what, just get a good earth, and 12v elec screwdriver, and get poking!!

hope this helps!

Sorry to but in buddy but would like to help here!

Before fitting a turbo timer (That's a bad idea anyway's as there crap) I would check with your insurance company 1st because I know of 2 cars that have been nicked with turbo timers that the insurance haven't paid out for as they're easy to nick the car...

I also don't see the point in them as all you have to do is drive off boost for 2 miles before you get to where your going and then wait 15 seconds then turn off!
