Does vividracing carry a tt harness for the 8 or did the install require splicing? I am looking for a harness to go with a tt. Let me know when/if you can get them.

Let me know, I hate sitting in my car waiting for it to cool down the turbo. I definitely dont want to splice, or make it confuse my factory alarm. thanks, you have a buyer here, just wanna do it right!

Lance alott, i dont think the evo8 has a factory alarm, just an engine disabler.?

i too am looking at getting a turbo timer for my evo, looking forward to hearing what is out there , and what is the best one/ with special features possibly.

thanks.

Do you think this could void the warranty? I know there's absolutely no threat to the engine at all......there's more of a threat not having it! But, would mitsu get **** about us having to tap into the wiring?

Yeah I'm wondering if it will void the warranty and when Vivid and/or Works are going to have their website up and running for the Evo.

I also have the Blitz timer in my Evo. Works fine. Hope the dealers won't have a problem with it. They'll look for any excuse to void your warranty.

Just take it out when you go for service. It's just a harness right?

I'm a service manager at a Mits dealer in Milwaukee, WI (I'm watching you Fireball LOL). A turbo time shouldn't void the warranty. Now if it is spliced in wrong and it leads to another problem, like a short in the ignition wiring, then that particular repair wouldn't be warrantied. I am going to try and get a list of what parts will void warranties and I'll post it in another thread.
