Yeah, i just usually take it easy for the last 5-10 mins of a journey. But to be honest, i dont use the turbo much anyway. Get away with changing up at 2.5k in a derv! :D | |

one thing Vibs, whats the deal with spinning down a turbo when turning off the engine?! A mate had a celica with a turbo, and it had a timer where the engine stayed running to keep oil flowing through the turbo | |
