Help Greddy turbo timer

Can someone please help me with the wiring for this thing? I feel like I've tried every possible combination and there is no plug in harness for our car.

Please before you said not to waste my money, know that I got the turbo timer for free off a friend.

Thank youa

Not a waste of money depending on the type of turbo you're running and how/where you're driving your car. But what do you mean tried every combination? This is not usually a plug and play item, as you have to tap into your ignition wiring. Where are you struggling exactly?

Wow, haven't anyone talk about turbo timers since the 90s. Just let your car idle for 30 seconds before shutting it down. Most modern turbos don't need 5+ minutes to cool down and get the oil through.

I'm struggling with which wires to tap. There are two 12v constant wires, two ignition on wires and one accessory wire. I've tried what seems like every combination of these wires but doesn't seem to work.
