	some of them are annoying, u can switch the engine on, leave it for a few seconds then turn it off - the t/timer will keep the engine running for several seconds

	right so i dont need a turbo timer cause theres just no point when i can just wait a min and let it cool. i just wanted to get maybe 1 or 2 just to put on the piller, duno why just think they would look good:D and make sure everything is ok with the temp or pressure etc.

	yup..... what gausges do you want..... Boost now, turn off now gauges :lol: use your water temp gauge.... it scheaper than fitting an oil temp one

	dont use the turbo till the temp gauge is about 1/4way up.... let it cool down for 30secs when stopped, before switching off

	quote: Originally posted by corsa_boi yeh just think i will spend 30secs in my car rather than spending ££ on something if you dont really need it. How long do you need to warm it up for then, or is it best to just take it easy for abit when you first go out. i am thinking about getting an alarm so maybe a could get a remote start and then that would warm and cool it down, not sure on the prices of those tho might be abit pricey depending on quality. AFAIK you don't have to warm a turbo up anymore so than any engine. From a cold start you should always take it easy for a while. I would maybe get a cheap second hand one or something or get a boost controller or whatever it is that comes with things like turbo timer, voltometer, rev counter etc all built in.

	quote: Originally posted by Adam Kindness its used to aid with cooling the turbo down. It will leave the car running for X amount of time, whilst you have the keys out. OR you can sit for 30secs after a drive and save 200 :lol: I chose this option :thumbs:
