How do I install a Turbo Timer???

I just picked up a Greddy Turbo Timer, but I'm not sure what some of the wires are for. Plus to top it off, the instuction booklet is in japanese. Could someone please explain how to install it in my 89 RX. Or atleast point me in the right direction of english instuctions.

I think the purple wire has something to do with the ECU. It turns the timer off if someone tries to take it.

where can you buy the harness? I have a Blitz Turbo Timer, but the previous owner had hooked it up wrong, (it runs the raditor fan, radio, and accessories that's it). other than that, is hooking up the Turbo Timer the same for S4 and S5 FCs?
