If the turbo timer is an add on, probably not but I always rip them out and use the alarm to control it, in which case it won't matter.

To your last post no idea, Halfords and car alarm specialists stock them and yes you will have to drill, spray everything with a moisture retardant afterwards.
Since you don't quite know what you're doing here's the trick.
Obtain some plasticine, measure a spot where you think your going to drill, place the plasticine to the switch plunger length at your guess then shut bonnet or hatch. If the plasticine is depressed by 1/4" or more, you're spot on.
Now can I go to bed please?

Then no problems with the turbo timer, the alarm shouldn't activate until the turbo timer shuts down.
Yes to validity.
14mm drill or hole cutter for the switches.
Go on line and look at Armour auto.com or ALL car audio/alarm stores and specialists keep a copy, even Halfords stores, page 535, PC5-34 for front and possibly rear.
PC5-53 for the rear hatch.

Ah brilliant, I wondered if maybe the ultrasonics were programmed not to arm until the timer had shut off and if this would need implementing with the 508D?
Sory, keep a copy of what? I shall look out for those, my local alarm installer is trying to source the 508D now for me but usually only deals with sigma etc.

Ah I see, is this for the 508d or the pin switches? I've never seen it in Halfords but I assume they will have it if i ask? As for online I had a look at the site but can't find the pin switches in the Autoleads department of their site?
I just did a little check, my alarm does indeed start to arm when the timer is running as if i sit inside while the timer is running and wave my arms, the alarm chirps to say it has been bypassed?
Although I have a feeling this should be okay, due to the fact the manual states if when the system is first armed one of the inputs is triggered, it will bypass that sensor until it stops triggering, then remonitor it, am I correct?

Yes but 3 pages on something that's already been done, come on why do you think no-one else has joined in?
Your problem is best solved by contacting the original installers with your issues and requests or a local dealer or Armour Auto themselves not on a could be should be basis with a third party like myself.
