Major Problem! turbo timer + anti lock help plz.......

alrite guys, took the car to the shop today and they installed the apexi safc 2, greedy profec b and the greddy tt. when i picked up the car, they said they cant install the turbo timer because of the aftermarket alarm i got(Clifford AvantGuard 5). i know it has a built in turbo timer, but still wanna get the gredddy anyway, then the anti lock came up. wat could be the problem? i searched already, exactly wat he said might be relays, sensor...etc. he told me to bring in the manuals and diagrams for the alarm so he can take a look at it and reset the car, is that gonna fix the problem? if you guys have any advice on installing the turbo timer on the AG5, with diagrams that'd be great

alrite guys, they got the turbo timer working by using two relays, BUT they told me i cant arm the car during the count down!!! thats kinda stupid, stand there and wait for the car to shut off then arm it...wats the point of having the turbo timer then? i thought u can take out the keys, arm the car during the count down.

They probably taped into a wrong line at the ecu with the s-afc or pulled a wire without noticing it.

well no, with the keyless entry all u have to do is provide the evo ecu wiring diagram for the shop and they can bypass it, in my case the avantguard 5 is a very very complicated alarm so i guess they didnt mess with it.

solution for my case, paid watever the cost for mitsubishi to pull out the turbo timer and fix the god dam problem, then have my audio guy that put in the alarm install the turbo timer....

that's weird, my car arms when my TT is counting down. i had the dealer install the alarm for me. it uses the original keyless transmitter. i was shocked to find out that it will armed. MY WRX could never be armed while the TT was counting down.
