:confused: Hi, just bought a HKS turbo timer, i've got it installed but everytime i turn the ignition off, the turbo timer shuts off. Any ideas on what's wrong and how to fix it? THANKS! BTW, 03 wrx.

No idea how to fix it but you don't need a turbo timmer on our cars.

i understand that but i will when i buy a new turbo

Maybe just a small idea but do you have it hooked to a constant power source?

why would you not need a turbo timer?

^ I've been told that even after you turn the engine off the coolant keeps recirculating. I guess thats why?

Its going to have to be something that gets power even with the key off like the radio memory or cig lighter I suppose.

you need to pull the parking brake up if you wired it to that, or it will shut off for safety purposes (so no one can steal your car).
Otherwise, you need to take the ground wire on the turbo timer and ground it to anything in the car, then it will stay on when you take the keys out.

An to everyone else, no, our cars don't NEED turbo timers, but in my case, I use it to keep my car running after warm up in order to lock the doors to my house in the morning :cool:

Okay i found the problem. I had it hooked to the wrong green wire. The wire that i needed was by itself and went directly to the parking brake. It was hard to find tho. It was under the center console on the right side of the parking brake under the carpet...:rolleyes: It works now!
