I think they all have wiring harness, but not ones for VWs! Sorry man. I think you'll have to cut and splice it yourself. Theres a how to on the Blitz Turbo Timer for a 2000 up GTi, Jetta, Bettle.

Does Blitz make something other than a box-type turbo timer? I'm looking into a turbo timer but want a pod guage for my A-pillar with the OEM-like red glow? Want all the benefits of Blitz's turbo timer but want it in a Guage pod form for my A-pillar!!!
Doesn't the car such as ours keep the fan on to cool the turbo down even after turning off the car? I've heard the fan on several times after a long/short trip on for a few minutes... whats the word on that?

Actually every car I've had does that including my 98' GTi & my 92' tercel. I think its more related to the temp of your radiator & cooling system. think about it. Hard or long driving & that radiator gets HOT, suddenly, no air movement & POP!Re: turbo timer ? (2001Bora)
As I under stand it the fan only cools the engine compartment. This does little to cool the inards our oil cooled turbos. If you drive hard and just shut her down, the hot oil sits still and over time is cooked in the lines. I havent seen an analog (mech./electronic) gauge DTT, But it seems you could get yourself a FATT and and a gauge if you're set on the pod mount. I personally love having all that junk shoved into one little box, but I'm going for wolf in sheeps clothing. I mounted mine in the upper corner of my windshield, it blends in perfecly with my grey headliner, and even though I didn't like the green at first, IMO the difference in color helps you find it quicker in the dark.
