Tools required - Phillips head screwdriver and 10 mm socket and ratchet attachment.
This procedure takes about 20 minutes. STEP 1: Disconnect the battery. Turn three plastic clips in front carpeted portion of the boot/trunk to remove this carpeted wall. Clips pop off when turned. 
STEP 2: Loosen right side bolts in location specified. 
STEP 3: Loosen left side bolt in location specified. 
STEP 4: Pry bottom panel out slightly on left side. Be careful not to break anything. Just pull it enough to allow a grip on it in the future steps. 
STEP 5: Repeat with right side. Pull slightly upwards. You may pry the panel above this one (shown to the left) out a bit if it helps- it just snaps on again. There are four hooks at the top of this piece that locate it at the top. Bolts secure the bottom, but the piece hooks into four slots at the top. ** Remember this for the reinstallation, it is the most difficult part in putting the piece back in correctly. 
STEP 6: Remove bottom piece (only at bottom of pic, the top piece need not be removed for this install so please ignore it). Put in a safe place. 
STEP 7: Remove harness from turbo timer box. 
STEP 8: Plug in harness into location shown behind ignition. 
STEP 9: Plug in the timer to the harness, and any other wires between harness and timer. 
STEP 10: Ground the black wire on harness to a location that is unpainted bare metal. The location I chose is shown below and to the left. A 10mm ratchet was used to remove the bolt here and hook up the ground wire. 
STEP 11: Hook up the battery again. Check your timer's operation now. 
STEP 12: Choose a mounting location and route your wires in any manner you choose. Secure loose wires that may intrude into the driver footwell. 
NOTES: Installation of panel is exact opposite of removal. Just pay particular attention to the part about the slots on top of the bottom panel you removed. Line up all four hooks with slots, then push the panel slightly upwards and towards the front of the car. Make sure fit is right before you screw in three bottom bolts in steps (3) and (4). |

You need to locate the wiring which comes out of the ignition and is held onto the steering column by a black plastic tie. There is a plug at the end of this and if you have the right loom adapter for your car, it will plug straight in.
It starts getting a bit more tricky when you don't have a plug in timer and have to locate and solder wires together. |

i take it if your car is equiped with an alarm it wont work, and you will have to have it installed proffesionally?

Correct the turbo timer will be installed differently if you have an alarm and immobiliser, I'd take it to a workshop to have them install it in this case (preferably the shop that installed your alarm). You will also most likely have to fork out a small amount of $$ for an alarm relay that sits between the alarm and the turbo timer as well. If your lucky the workshop might only charge you just the relay cost.
