HKS V10 Turbo Timer X

10th generation Turbo Timer evolutionally advanced with the turbo engines. A must for the turbo engine!

The original turbo timer was developed to prevent turbocharger bearing seizure by after-idling. All turbochargers are exposed to high temperature exhaust gas; therefore, if the engine was shut off without after-idling the turbine may be damaged. To secure sufficient turbine life, it was necessary to keep the engine idling before the engine was shut off. HKS Turbo Timer was developed to prevent the turbocharger damage by letting the engine idle even after the ignition is switched off.

10th Generation Model - Simple and Highly Operable Model from 35-year History!

Simple, and easy to use. Simple operation just by pressing a switch:

Features:

• Simple after-idling function and easy operation
• Optimal touch button size for simple operation
• Wavy panel design around the button for better operability. Capable of operating the button even in the dark.
• Accurate setting is possible even by quick operation.
• One-digit display for easy recognition of the set time
• Time duration changed simply by pushing the button. Intuitive operations is possible.
• Selecting "OFF mode" turns off the display and buzzer.

Functions:

• Single button control and red LED numerical display simplify operation and improve visibility.
• 5 time ranges selectable between 1, 3, 5, 10, and 30min. Maximum timer duration is 30 minutes.
• Accurate time duration can be selected by manual setting.
• Handbrake detective safety circuit
• High capacity relay
• Timer operation stops under unstable conditions caused by low voltage of a battery, etc.

Vehicle Fitment:

• Turbo vehicles that start the engine using the ignition key.
• Not applicable to a vehicle equipped with the push-button ignition.
• Existing Turbo Timer Harness is compatible.

Examples of Idle Time:

Example of One Minute Time Range: Frequent after-idling for daily use.

• Idling takes place after street driving, commuting, etc.
• It is convenient when a driver has to leave the car right after the engine is shut off.

Example of 3 Minutes Time Range: Effective after-idling after driving a highway.

• After idling can cool down the turbine and/or engine oil heated up by continuous high speed driving, and the engine shut off without imposing a load to the turbine and/or engine; therefore, the durability of the engine and engine oil is improved.

Example of 5 Minutes Time Range: Effective after-idling after circuit driving

• When high load is applied to an engine, and an engine runs at a high speed, the engine and turbine may become in a condition close to a limit. With Turbo Timer, after-idling takes place even if the ignition is turned off by mistake so the engine and turbine may not be damaged.

Example of 10 Minutes Time Range: To keep the interior temperature when leaving a vehicle for a short time

• With Turbo Timer, a driver can lock the vehicle door even while running an engine; it allows the vehicle interior temperature maintain when leaving the vehicle for ten minutes or so while reducing a load to a battery.

Example of 30 Minutes Time Range: To maintain the vehicle interior temperature in summer or winter

• Maximum timer duration is 30 minutes. A long after-idling enables the vehicle interior temperature to be maintained for a long time.
• (A long after-idling may not be allowed depending on the area, facility, local regulation, etc.)
