You can also simply idle the engine for one to ten minutes minutes (depending on how hard you have driven the vehicle in the last 10 minutes) for it to cool down.

thanks for the reply. so it is basically a protective or warning device - so you wont turn off the engine right away and damage the turbo after a ride. am i correct?

also, so what turbo timer would you recommend and what's the estimated price?

thanks
