I hate to be off topic in the tof an idiot thread, but i thought i would share. I put a bov and boost controller in the 260 today. Soon i will intercool it. I also fabbed up some exhaust today. Might of just maybe put a little to much seafoam in the tank though, 1 can and 1 gallon of gas. didnt realize it was so low, so um i fouled the plugs. gonna pull em in the morn and crank da engine a few time to get that fuel outa the cylinders and then off to auto x. Should be a good sunday.

oh yeah, also a boost gauge, fits nicely where the original clock was. took some custom fab but its in there.

No no no no don't take it out

read the F!@#%U*& directions and save your turbo

as far as i know, the turbo timer just keeps your car running after you've turned it off for a set time (hence... turbo timer... kinda like a kitchen timer...)
so you don't fry your damn turbo and cause the oil in it to burn and **** and **** and ****

keep it in there, read the directions.
