Drive your car normally for the last minute of operation (rather than thrashing it to your door), idle for 30 seconds and then shut off.

Normal operating procedure.

Turbo timers come from the ark, when oil was far less 'designed' than it is today.

You should not need a turbo timer, just enough sense to wind your drive down.

to be honest i was thinking the same, never had one on my evo, but i was just looking on ebay and saw that they was cheap thought it might be a easy mod that would look good in the car, but as im no good fitting stuff like that im best leaving it lol, thanks
