Re: homemade turbo timer?
I used to just not hit boost for a minute or two before I got to my destination, and then let it idle for a few seconds (like 30).
When I pulled my turbo apart to rebuild it there were zero signs of coking, so I figure I must have done something right.
I'm not sure I would trust some kitchen timer if I were you. Just let it cool off and you won't need any sort of timer.
