polo gti turbo timer installation

Tell that to the Passat owners that kill a large number of turbos from oil coking and bearing siezure from not idling down.

When you look at it the more you stress an engine component the more likley it is to fail - these turbos use boundry lubrication between rotating surfaces which is a very fine film of oil.... if you turn your engine off 6000rpm then yer maybe some damage can occur.... but who does that???

IMO i have owned a turbo excel, 180, skyline and now the pog and have never had a timer installed cause they are a waste of >$200 when a bit of grey matter and your right foot can be employed. Buy yer if you flog your car adn turn it straight off then it causes stress but they are designed to be perfectly capable of running down from engine idle speed to a stop without damage
