    I got a Greddy full auto turbo timer, but it manual is all Japanese. I have the unit with plug coming out, another harness with a plug on each end, and purple and brown wires (assuming this is for the e-brake). Can someone give me a clue on how to hook this thing up? It looks like it just plugs into something and then I splice the other two into the e-brake sensor.

    the harness with the plug on each end you pop open your dash and find the dark blue connector with 3 white/black & black/white striped + green wires, that's the ignition harness, pop it apart and plug in both ends. The purple wire should go onto the e brake screw under your cupholder trim, dunno about the brown. the other harness should be your ground and +12v power which you can get from the fusebox or cigarette lighter back wires. hope that helps.

    Cool man, thanks. I'll give it a go on Saturday. I gotta get my 15,000 mile service and finish my air box also

    Before installing, be aware that a turbo timer is not necessary on a water cooled setup like ours.

    But if you ever decide on a different turbo like the ball bearing garret turbos you already have it!
