Buy a harness. That the easiest and cleanest way.

Too bad you didn't do some research before buying. You don't need a turbo timer for an FD. Just drive it easy for the last 2 minutes of your drive, and shut it off. Turbo timers are a waste of time, space, and money. Maybe you can get your money back

yup the harness is the best way to go. Then all you have to do is run the correct wire from the harness to the e-brake handle sensor. Your turbo timer may have a few other options available that require you to run other wires but that all should be in the manual.
