Ok, so you just get done giving your car hell racing at the track or around town. Most people say after beating on a turbo you should lit the car idle for the turbo to cool down. But how long is long enough??

 

a minute is good, just open ur door and let ur engine idle and wait untill the annoying chime/beeping stops

 

I have an egt guage and i just wait till it gets to 65 which normally takes about a minute to a minute and a half. Although i know some evo's and supras that do 4 minutes no matter what. Overkill = Yes.

 

yea i just wait till my egt's are around 700

 

3 min

 

Well, if you really wanted to be perfect, just get a turbo timer and set it for a minute. the greddy like I have adjusts to your driving style so I have seen the car idle for over ten minutes before.........which is way too long....Im going to have to look into that.

 

If you have been driving around like crazy, I usually sit in the car and listen to the radio for a min or just clean out any garbage in the car while leaving it running. The turbo is so damn small and takes such a beating that I am sure you could for the life of the car turn the car off right away and not have a turbo failure - not thats its good for it. I think its really important when you go K04 or bigger.

If I have been driving around town light driving maybe 20-30 seconds.
