There's an internet acronym for this.... RTFM. 
Do you have access to the manual?
Also, do you have an alarm? Alarms can complicate matters.

Hmm... No manual makes it VERY difficult.
Do you have access to the wiring diagram for the car/engine that it's coming out of? You can trace the lines that it's connected to and figure out what each wire does...

Its pretty easy to wire up a turbo timer...
Usually they have the +12v power and an earth... And then they have two wires that are used to bridge the ingnition circut. I.E. Keep power flowing while the ingnition circut is closed...
Some timers have just one wire though, best bet is get a manual ;p
