Re: Turbo Timer?

Turbo timers are nothing more than a "safety" device that allow your turbo to cool down after driving without you having to be in your car. If you drive hard and then just turn your car off without letting it cool down the oil in the turbo will basically boil and bake, significantly reducing the life of the turbo.
