Turbo Timer - What and where?
Two things.
1. What turbo timer do you have? (brand/model)
2. Where did you place it?
Pictures would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Funny story about turbo timers.
A guy was running at a local racetrack in his turbocharged car with a turbo timer. He made a mistake and ran off track, and his engine caught fire. Luckily, he had a fire extinguisher in the car. He jumped out and put the fire out with the extinguisher, and then breathed a sigh of relief, his car was OK.
BUT, a few second later, the fire started again. He put it out. It started again. Etc. etc. etc. The turbo timer kept pumping oil which kept catching fire. lol (but sorry for the guy).

Blitz DTT DCII, mine is under the a/c controls. I kept my visable because it also has an electronic boost gauge, peak boost reading, lap timers and other goodies.

hks type -0 simplest and more efficient way to go. Does its job and matches the interior perfectly.
i have it on the steering column now but i mounted one underneath the center console above the ashtray, and it looks better, will relocate.
I'm trying to find a way to install this where the clock is... haven't really found a good way to.

Apexi, because it displays O2 voltage/air fuel ratio.
The new thing around here is cops inspecting your car when you get pulled over. If anything looks like it's been modded/altered, get ready to pop the hood. I had to make it consealable (pics);
