someone just told me that you can make your greddy turbo timer glow red the whole time instead of blue. is that true? i am in the process of making every light in my interior match and this would be a great asset.

I leave mine in the voltage selection mode, and it doesn't shine red. Unless of course you reach a set warning level... BTW, hold power and press the far right button until you reach the voltage section, I think. Read your manual to find out for sure.

You know, I just thought of something, imagine that! Check this out: the GReddy tt allows you to set certain warning levels for just about everything, including voltage. Just set your low voltage warning at... 15v or something, and set your high voltage warning at... 10v. That way you would always be out of the range of your set levels, and your tt would then warn you by glowing red. I'm going to have to try this myself. Kinda cool. Sorry it took so long.

Yes that will work. But....when you pull out the key and the timer counts down it will then be blue again correct?

More than likely, but so what? It turns off in less than a minute anyway, and your lights will no longer be on.

You know, I wish I had it setup in mine, but it was already installed in my car when I got it, and they didn't wire up to the speed sensor or whatever. By the way, it reads in kph and not mph.

In what respects? The timer as a whole or??? I probably wouldn't get it because TTs are pretty much pointless in the Evo, unless you want it for all the other settings it provides. Like I said earlier, the only reason I have it is because it came with the car. Otherwise I probably wouldn't have even bothered, and used my $100 somewhere else. But it does have volt, speed, and timers so... I dunno, whatever.

just keep hitting the P+S buttons til it says VOL... you might have to set the low and high setings, but it should display the volts...
