1. You dont need a turbo timer, do a search, SydneyKid has already clearly outlined why.

2. You have only listed 3 things there, I fail to see where the other 17 units are..........?

3. I dont believe this unit you are after, the all-in-one, exists....?

Yeah I have a TT too, came with the car, used it for a while but now just set it to zero, still it shows my boost, albeit in bar, still it is a bit useless.

And I am not tottally against them, but if you read the following thread, you will see why I believe they are not worth buying.

No offence to anyone that has a TT, but they seem like RICE to me... Your car won't cool down sitting still while running, you need to drive it around slowly so the air flow can cool it. Ever noticed on a hot day that your car gets warmer sitting at the lights, then cools down once you start moving again?

That is the whole explanation (in a nut shell) to why they are not worth having. And that they are a great place for a car thief to hot wire the car from...

All in one, no

but boost and engine management can be controlled in 1, PFC with BC kit. However...forget that idea.

Wolf ECU has a built in boost controller and possibly a turbo timer, also SK said to me he his first choice for EBC with a Power FC is the standard BC kit.

I think Alex is probably pointing to the Auto/no PFC issues there. It would be great to have the management know what the boost is doing, I think that would help a lot.

I guess we will all have to settle for "different strokes for different folks"

Absolutely! You want one, get one, just stating why I wouldn't have one. Freedom of information, all good.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
