You can get to english manual online just search. do you have the harness? that would be a lot easier, installed mine in half hour.

If you have the harness installation is easy as pie.

First, connect the harness to the ignition plug under your steering wheel column.

Then run the black ground wire and ground it somewhere safe.

I hooked up the RPM wire (forgot which color...) to my ECU but I don't think thats necessary.

Really all you need to hook up is the ground and the harness to the ignition. I don't even have my parking brake wire hooked up...

I would recommend hooking it up to the parking brake since it's pretty easy anyways. Might as well when you've got half of it ripped out. I believe it's the brown wire that goes to the ebrake.

Real easy i did it myself with no experience working on a car , you dont need rpm signal but a Vehicle speed sensor so the car dies right when you try to move with key out

The harness is the best and least intrusive way to install the TT. The harnesses are universal, therefore, using the HKS one will work with GReddy/Apex'i etc.

You don't NEED the RPM wire, but you would be eliminating one of the features by doing so. There's a setting that automatically increases the time based on one of two rpm levels, therefore, setting the appropriate count down time.

The poster that didn't hook up the ebrake wire, yikes, that one is the easiest, and can be done in 5-10min from start to finish

My buddy tried to install with a harness and he screwed it up. When he call me i had a extra harness and i got him fixed up in an hour. I would recomend if you are going to install a turbo timer get a harness to help you out. So much easier.
