does the alternator charge the battery at idle? i need a high output alternater, but the ones ive found are 200-300 price range. im looking for something cheaper and was thinking about using a turbo timer to charge the battery for me. anyone know of a dirt cheap turbo timer or do it yourself instructions, just need the car to run for a couple minutes after i get out.

was kicking around the idea of a relay and capacitor to keep the ignition on, but im not sure how to wire the ignition to stay on without the key

your ign wires will be found at your key. solid white is your constant 12v. black with red and black with orange are your ign and/or acc. its been a while since i installed my turbo timer. if you want to be able to install this without cutting your factory ign harness. get a blitz 94-98 supra turbo timer harness it will plug into your factory harness so you can cut into the splice harness. make sense? hope this helps!

thank you, thats what i was looking for.

do i need to keep acc and ign hot to keep it running, or would just ign work? would be nice to automatically cut acc but keep it on.
