chrism Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Anyone make there own turbo timer? If so, do you have a drawing? I'm going to design one but if it has already been done then let me know. It's going to be ugly and hide under the dash. I'll make it so you can adjust the time the engine runs using a dial. Not going for form just fit and function. Fit under dash and function. Ha Ha !!

GrayZee Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Remote car starters come with that option built in, cheaper than buying a turbo timer plus they have other uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm thinking $15 in parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardBlack Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Someone already lists a DIY timer setup; just like the DIY wideband controller. It's pretty cheap on parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrism Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 Has to be under $15 in parts. That looks like $50. We are talking dark age tech. Something that you have to set and then forget. Ugly but works. Hide under the dash never to be seen again. Until it stops working of course. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the hardware store and get an extra ignition and door key made. Lock the ignition in the car with it running until you come back out to the vehicle. That's your dark age turbo timer solution. That, or buy a can of your favorite soft drink and have a few sips while it idles before you get out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 See, I knew someone would come up with a great idea. Soda is 50 cents so I can only do this 30 times and then I'm SOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
