Anyone has the HKS Type 1 Turbo timer, Wanna kno if this is good Options

[cax_11]

I'm considering buying a turbo timer, am actually thinking about buying the HKS Type one, because of the digital tach and speedo. Does anyone have this installed and use all the features?

had it on my st185 (check http://www.turbocelica.lv ) i had the previous generation (ugly looking)
awesome unit by all means and highly recommend over the type-0 ! other brands dont come even close unless the function is included in aftermarket ECU..
go ahead and buy it. also get the harness which makes it 2x ieasier to set up, but if u cant get it, dont worry, its not hard to wire it up =) i received wrong adapter, the seller offered to exchange it for the correct version, but i didnt bother as it took me just 30 mins to figure out which wires to splice/connect..

Nice!! So do you use the RPM and Speedo functions? Which wire does the speedo Connection hook up to?

Hi

I have it in my ST205 and yes you see RPM, Speed in KM, Has a timer aswell so u can record or 0-100km/hr times, obviously timer for turbo, and alot of other different settings that need to be played around with all and all its worth the money. but just to be sure i didnt instal it myself took it to a friends garage.

Cool, I just ordered it. Just need to know which wire on the ecu to splice for the install.

Yeah man you see if your not sure dont play around with it just in case, it will come with instructions but i doubt it will make any sense try the install only if your 100% sure...

That leads to my next question, I wonder if anyone on here can tell me which wires to tap into for the RPM and the Speedometer. It easy to splice just gotta know which wires to splice

I have the TT-4 adapter for my car. I found the speed sensor on the ecu pinout chart, but which wire to tap into for the rpm?

[TEAMFaint]

Look for "Tach" wire. May not be labelled "RPM".

Here's my ecu pin out, am not seeing the "tach" or "rpm"

[TEAMFaint]

Well there is another way instead of going to the ecu, run a wire into the engine bay and grab the tach signal from the bay instead of the ECU. Other option if needed.

OK, I guess I'll have to do that if no one on here can help, I'll post a topic about it and see

G1 is the tach signal
