cooling the turbo is meant to stop the oil from "baking" onto the turbo shaft.. which throws it off balance and will eventually lead to bad bearings and lots of shaft play... aka a blown turbo.

MR T states

"allow 20 to 120 seconds after hard driving, towing or driving up a step hill, before turning the engine off"

TT on a Turbo Car = Good
TT on N/A = Bad

Hense why they never called it a N/A Timer.

Your just pre-heating the oven bro.

And of course they arnt just saying that to sell more of them, but if you read the info it says - "In normally aspirated cars, the Auto Timer can also be used to warm/cool the inside of the car without having to sit inside. " says nothing about the engine. Neither articles are writen by credible sources, one guy from e-bay and an import company.
But thats enough of this debate, If your happy running a turbo timer on a N/A car then good for you, its got nothing to do with anyone else. smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif Take it easy bud, happy driving.
