ok i followed all the instructions on the vfaq.com
http://ca.dsm.org/FAQ/2gtt-faq.html

still my car doesnt seem to stay on. it turns the tt on and if i drive it it starts to calculate the time it should stay on. but after im done driving and i turn the key to off the car turns off also. the tt will start counting down and then when its done it just stays on. should it stay on btw?

anyway, at the very last part of the installation guide it says to get the hks tt harness and cut the blue wire but since i have a greddy turbo timer and a greddy harness i wasnt sure.

ill just copy paste quote

Go now to the HKS TT Harness, the one we put between the two stock plugs at the beginning. Find the blue wire in this harness that runs to the TT unit itself (and only to the TT, not between the ignition plugs), and snip it. Tape up both ends.

That should be it.

Any help is definately apreciated.
 
use this vfaq to hardwire your timer On your timer you will have an accessory wire, a power wire, and an ignition wire. on your car you will need to find the constant power, and the two ignition wires. the vfaq says to wire into the accessory wire, DO NOT DO THAT, IT IS WRONG! Instead wire the accessory wire from the timer into the 2nd ignition wire on your car. the reason for this is that the car uses both ignition wire to power the car on and off the accessory wire just supplies power to your stereo, heater etc. you do not need power to these when you are not in the car.
 
well i already have the turbo timer harness so might as well use it. but if all fails i will try it that way. Do I cut or do I not cut? it says to but figured since this is a harness it should be the right way as it is.
