Apex'I Turbo Timer

I finally got a turbo timer for my car and I am loving it. No more sitting in my car for 5 minutes waiting for it to cool down. Does anyone have this turbo timer? If so, I was wondering how long it takes for the A/F meter to start working? According to the instructions, it says the O2 sensor is still warming up since the light blinks green and red, but it reads the O2 readings just fine. Any advice with this to help me out? Thanks in advance.

I never got mine to work. I have the harness as well. Its inaccurate anyway so I never bothered to fix it. I only bought it for the timing purpose

Thanks for the input, makes me semi-skeptical now. Anyone else?

you have to wait till the car is fully warmed up before it starts getting AF readings...even then the readings are kinda sketchy.

I went for a little drive, getting on it too, and still nothing. Just sits there blinking away.

What wire (color) did you tap into for the A/F signal?

Tapped the O2 sensor wire into the ECU that the diagram said to. O2 sensor is working and displays, but the A/F won't.
