edd_t Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Ok, ive ripped out my old Jap monkey fitted turbo timer. Which new one should I buy, they seem to range from £70 to £100. Seen a few from Apexi, HKS, Blitz & Greddy. But all seem to do the exact same thing. Anyone got any opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarface GTti Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I think its basically down to which one you find the best looking really, there isn`t much to choose between them. I`ve got GReddy one which is just fine. I bought a wiring harness from Envy so it was dropped in the car within 5 minutes. Dead simple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted September 22, 2005 Author Share Posted September 22, 2005 What it looks like? my last one was hidden behind the dash! when the dash was taken away to fit the new alarm it fell into the foot well! lol. so you have these on display then? where do you put um?

Nic Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 As has been said it really just comes down to looks they all pretty much do the same thing. These are the GReddy, HKS and Apexi timer, if you want a price from here pm me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulrik Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I got the Greddy Full Auto Turbo Timer Just got it setup in the car. Looks really sweet. And easy to use. My vote is on the greddy. (Get the easy harness setup kit also) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faye Brother Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Anyone got any opinions? Save your money and don't buy a replacement. They're gimmicks and are not particularly popular with insurance companies either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I have a Blitz one that is small and sits over one of the blanking plates under the stereo perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wez_p Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 one of the Blitz ones can also double up as a digital boost gauge if you don't already have one of those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 all sounds cool ppl. but where do u fit it? If you cool down the car after a run then, you don't need one really. The one thing it did save me was sitting in the car letting it cool down when, it did not need it. When I was a noobie, I was wasting my time sat there for at least 2mins every time I took the car out so, was worth the money just for that IMO. I have modded the centre glove box and fitted it there out of view but, with easy access and fits into that recess very nice. (as originally seen on MKIV.com which, I liked very much) Here is mine (HKS Type-1) with a chewy box for size reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
