Default Alright, so what's the best Turbo timer out there and where to get it?

Looking for some research on them and I know there's a LOT of new ones out there. I've read through all the archieved stuff about the Apexi, Greddy and so on, but I wanted to hear if anyone had gotten new ones or anything like that.

TIA!

is different

Default my greddy works for me just fine

all i need it to do is count down so my car can cool off a bit. if that's all your looking for your turbo timer to do, any one will be fine. i, like many others here, just chose the greddy because it matches our interiors.

Default

Why not just get the old Greddy III? It works fine and looks stock in the cupholder.

Default They are pretty hard to find.

I've actually been looking for one for several weeks with no luck.

Default I just did a search on ebay and found 3 of them for sale (links in post)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=33691&amp;item =2427044090

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=6763&amp;item= 2426775915

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=33742&amp;item =2427042335

The search string I used was "greddy turbo timer". I got mine off of ebay a few weeks ago. Won't find a new one, but the used ones are generally in good condition. Hope this helps.

Default Thanks, I've seen the first two before and decided against them (location/condition) but the...

third one is a possibility.

I should have said in my post that I was looking for a brand new one and was unable to find them.

Tried a half dozen places that had them listed on their website, but none had them anymore.
