yes. a turbo timer leaves the engine running for a few minuites after your finished driving. TBH im not sure what difference this makes.

Well since your trying to make me out to be a tit i will show you up....

YOUR TURBO IS WATER COOLED AND THEREFORE DOES NOT NEED A TURBO TIMER.

Lesson over for today sunshine go back to bed.

You dont need one either. Theyre a waste of time and money.

Why not do what I and most turbo owners do? Leave the car idling for 1 minute after heavy use. If youve come off a bypass and join a 30 limit, by the time you arrive home there wont be much need to let it cool down anyway.

the principal is to allow oil to leave the turbo so that it doesnt turn to carbon and burn a hole in the turbo. Leaving the car running for 1 minute is sufficient enough imo.
