you dont need a turbo timer. just let the car idle for a little after a drive before shut down. turbo timer is a waste of money imo.

It's been awhile since I installed mine, but one wire goes to your o2, "IF" you want to use that feature, one goes to your e-brake so it automatically shuts off the engine when you release it. the other one is a ground or a 12v source idrc right now. Not sure which wires are what so you need to look at your instructions.

ok tracking the black is ground it goes to the ECU in the left side but there is so many wires. The white is the 02 sensor and it goes in the plug in the right side but and the gray is in the brake. But this is the thing I look the picture and the ECU of the picture wish is a evo 8 is diferent from the 9 and I don't know in what wires goes and the funny part the instructions it doesn't explain.

Yeah, I hear you. I got my ecu pin out diagram off of road race engineering's website. I 'm not sure if they have one for the 9, but you could check out their site. or if you have access to All-data. they should have it. Or try searching google for a evo 9 ecu pin out diagram. good luck.

Go to where it says evo IX ecu pinout pdf and download it and then you will know what wire is for what. Easy enough and good luck.

how you doing guys so today I decided to install my turbo timer apexi. Take all the steering wheels covers the glove box fo ECU and the E brake so I can work with the place clean. I Buy the HKS plug and play harness so is easy to do. I start looking for the male harness find it. Next I start looking for female part and I cand find it. the cable goes up like going to the mileage cluster. There is another some cables has tape on it so my guess a retard cut the female plug and right know I have all my dash fall apart. any help
