Turbo Timer
by t.renshaw34 » Mon Dec 26, 2011 1:11 pm
Hey guys, so I got a new HKS turbo the other week and have got myself a HKS turbo timer to help warm the new turbo down properly. Has anyone put a turbo timer on their liberty before? As I don't really want to be playing with my ignition wires with out knowing what I'm doing.

Will your insurance even cover a turbo timer? I would be checking that first.

Is the new HKS turbo an old style oil only cooled turbo? No water feed?
If it has a water feed don't even bother fitting it, it's wank factor only, as water continues to cool down the turbine housing by convection.
The old ones needed a timer to let the housing cool so it didn't congeal around the bearings.

I don't think any insurance company covers turbo timers. There was a discussion a while ago about it. Something in regards to the turbo timer bypassing the immobiliser and hence giving easy access to thieves.
