I was just kidding, I was already pissed when I called GReddy and that was the icing on hte cake. I pulled it out and found out my unit was defective and since the kid dented it, I can't do anything. Oh well, it was already on the car when I bought it.

he can make this bet because its true. turbo timers on our cars without a turbo swap to an oil-cooled only turbo are useless. They are only there for show.

they are useless as a turbo timer. i've used one for quite some time now. not for what it is intended for though. i used it so i didn't have to shut off my car to check my mail. they serve no performance aspect though.

unless later down the road you upgrade to an oil-cooled turbo instead of oil and water-cooled.
