Hi,

I have recently purchased a Focus RS and i was wondering if anyone can give me some advice on if it is worth buying a turbo timer for the car?

Cheers

Turbo timer is not needed on an FRS - if you drive the car sensibly for the last 5 minutes or so of your route and allow the car to idle for a minute or so when you park up that will do the job for you :thumbsup:

Visit http://bbs.rsownersclub.co.uk and have a look in the FRS section & you'll have loads of useful info on the FRS there biggrin

Ive had mine for 2 yrs now not got a turbo timer it's really not needed. Be careful if you do decide to get one though as some insurance companies wont honor a theft claim if one has been fitted.

Turbo Timer will almost certainly invalidate the Cat1 status of your alarm and as stated already it really isnt needed, drive the last few minutes of your journey off boost - job donewink
