Smile Turbo Saver Install

Just purchased a turbolivesaver from Motorhaven for my 04' EX. Should arrive in a couple of days. According to the add looks as if it is "plug and play" but if anyone has any tips or advice on installing it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

gaxton

I installed one in my RX7. If the truck ones work the same way, basically you:

1. Unhook the factory ignition harness from the factory ignition.
2. Hook the wires of the factory ignition harness into the "T" harness supplied with the timer.
3. Hook the other end of the "T" into the factory ignition.
4. It should need power and ground as well, hook those up.

Thats it! I looked at the picture of what you bought and it looks pretty much the same as what I have in my car, so the above should be fairly accurate.
