The main issue in the installation is the wiring. Three of them must be hooked into the ignition switch. To access the wiring you must remove the 2 lower panels underneath the driver side dash. Reaching your right hand up approximately behind the ignition switch, you'll grab hold of a bundle of wires (and also grab hold of the most slimy substance known to man -tape residue-) If you trace the bundle back to the switch, you'll feel a large round connector, about 2 inches in diameter. There are no clips holding it on, so you can wiggle it off. This allows you to see all the wires and attach the taps with ease. A word of warning! DO NOT take the connector apart. I did so in order to trace the pins (you just see a mess of wires coming out of the plug with no real order to them) Unfortunately, the pins inside are held on by the cap. Assuming you are stupid and attempt disassembly, wires will spring out, leaving you to figure out their proper place. Upon reassembly, you will then find that simply inserting your key into the ignition will cause your car to start :freak: Naturally, this would only happen if you were silly. On to the wiring. There are 4 main wires that require hook up from the unit.
1.) Red - Constant 12v
This wire hooks to the beefy red wire coming out of the switch. There are actually 2, and I found it didn't matter which one you chose, both are constant 12v
2.) Blue - Accessory Wire (Becomes active when switch is in #2 position)
This is a beefy black wire, only one coming out.
3.) Green - On Wire (Switch in # 3 position)
Blue wire with red stripe.
4.) Black - Ground
Since I put my controller in the center console next to the lighter, I mounted it to a metal post inside.
Place your ignition switch back on, and then route your wires to wherever your unit will be (up and to the right is a pass-through to the center console).
Additionally, there are 2 safety wires, a brown one for the parking brake signal, and a purple one for the speed signal. These keep the car from being driven away while the TT is still running.
5.) Brown - Parking Brake Safety Wire
Unscrew the 2 torx screws holding the tray underneath the brake lever. Detach the clip at the front holding the tray to the front console (right in front of the fuse box) You can now lift out the tray and you will find a brown wire running from the parking brake safety switch. Tap into this wire with the brown wire from the TT.

No, only the JDM counterparts (ie. 180sx, Silvia, etc.) came with stock turbo engines.
A licensed electrician can install a timer on your light.
Yes. It can be installed to your car without having a turbo. Your car will operate the same whether you have a turbo installed or not.
A turbo timer lets some oil run through the turbo after hard use. You can accomplish the same thing by letting the engine run a minute before you cut the ignition.
It is not possible to have a turbo timer hold open a circuit on a BA Falcon and still be able to use the keyless remote. The turbo timer must be on a close circuit at all times for keyless remote to operate.?æ
A turbo timer is a device used in vehicles to keep the engine running for a preselected period of time, to enable cool down periods automatically. As it is designed for automotives, any website that sell parts that are vital to cars will be places where you can find a new turbo timer to replace a faulty/broken one.
Both a Turbo and a Supercharger are relatively easy to install on the Chargers.
A turbo timer is a device which keeps the engine running after the key is removed. The purpose of the TT is to continue cooling the turbo by circulating oil through the turbo's oil lines, to avoid the effect of oil coking, in which oil sits in the hot lines, bakes, and develop deposits that may degrade turbo bearing performance. A turbo timer is not required of all vehicles - the Subaru WRX owner manual specifically addresses this issue, but some older vehicles will benefit from the practice of installing one.
yes
the vehicle probably has what is called a turbo timer. oil runs through a turbo lubricating and cooling the bearings when in operation. normally when you turn off the car the oil no longer pumps and the turbo is left remaining very hot. the turbo timer continues to pump oil through the turbo in order to prevent damage to the hot turbo allowing it to cool off extending its life
Only one motor, the ka24e single cam motor 2.4 liter. The Japanese version is known as a 180sx which had he ca18det, twin cam 1.8 liter turbo.
