well the ebrake is a safety precaution on the TT ... so wire it up, other wise, it'll think the ebrake is down and won't keep ur car on

And the speed sensor tells it how long to keep the car on (I think.)

I'm not really sure. It uses some signal to see how long the car was running and how hard it was running to determine how long the car needs to stay on to cool off.

the greddy tt uses bechicle speed and rate of acceleration to fiogure out how long to stay on based onthe mode the tt is set to and th e-brake switch is a safety measure... if its not wired up the car wont stay on.

Is yours setup by YOU to stay on for a specific time?

I know Blitz has it so you can set the amount of time it stays on or it can calculate it automatically by vehicle speed and stuff like that.

Well there ya go.

The VSS wire is for the automatic timer. It wouldn't be there if there was no reason for it.

But it seems as though the OP figured out the manual timer, so he's good to go.

I didn't know that. I have to wire up my half melted HKS turbo timer soon. As soon as I find a wiring diagram.

actually the greddy TT uses the RPM's to calculate the time to cool off. i don't have a vss hooked up and my time will go up if i set it for automatic calculation. i just set it for 3 minutes though since that's what was recomended to me by a turbo rebuild shop.
