Yeah I say save your money too. I mean how bad is it to just sit and let the car idle for a few? And if you've got a manual transmission and your like me, when you park you leave the car in gear. I just don't like relying on only the "e-brake" to hold the car while parked.

Knowing the way I drive I better get a turbo timer otherwise I am going to be sitting in my car letting it cool down longer than I am actually driving it. :P

"there is no way in the world that your turbo timer can mess up your vehicle's timing"

maybe he said ignition timing.

but can i just drive under 3000rpm for like 5-7 minutes and just turn off my car right away?or the only why is to sit in the parking lot and wait.

I have a turbo timer on my car but its not necessary, now that I found out I can get a ticket for letting my car idle for more than 30 seconds. :P you can just sit in your car a minute and then shut it off, thats good enough, the auto.turbo timer does this for 1 minute of idle for each hour of driving... not worth it, unless you want it for the extra features, volt guage, A/F voltage, and A/F ratio, save you all those extra guages ;)

I bought a turbo timer. Got it for like $60 on honda-tech. So I was like what the hell. I got sick of waiting and I was always letting it cool too long because I wasnt sure and I have a bad rememberance of time lol.
