Default wtf is wrong with my god damn car now

okay so now my car, i installed the turbo timer.. it was fine after that, now when i'm at high rpm, the brake light flickers and ****, the car is getting a shakey most of the time, and when i pull the ebrake up. the brake light doesn't come on....also when i go to shift my rpm's down fall down as much as i think they should, and my clutch feels kinda weak for a stage 3...

i don't know any other way to put it..
but hopefully someone can take what i said and help me out.


plus my antilock light stays on..

Was all this happening before you installed the turbo timer?

You installed the turbo timer incorrectly?

"the brake light flickers and ****"
"when i pull the ebrake up. the brake light doesn't come on"
"plus my antilock light stays on.."

then ee asked ya "Was all this happening before you installed the turbo timer?"

you said "no sir."

so the ovious answer is the shop didnt know what the hell they were doing
go to someone who actually knows electronics and have them fix it....

as for the car shaking could be a lot of things...alignment...tire balancing etc...if it shakes on braking then your rotors are probably warped

well seeing that you have a cable driven clutch id say either the cables mis adjusted or your on the verge of clutch problems


my clutch gets soft once in a while but then it goes away, this is because im still not used to the new pressure plate
