I asked the service guy about getting a TT a while ago. he said its not necessary for the xr's as we have a ball bearing turbo (whereas the r33 has a ceramic turbo), and even if we turn out engines off, it still gets lubricated, where the r33 contracts (hence the need for the tt).

he also said its better to be safe then sorry, and recommended I leave it for about 2 minutes if ive been pushing it.

Can you add a turbo timer that can be removed easily if needed?

I pick my car up soon and it is a fleet car which means I am not allowed to modify it at all, but I know I will be fanging it everywhere and like others in this thread have said, I don't want to wait a couple of minutes in the garage letting it cool down.

Cheers

If you do a search you will find topics concerning this issue

Basically, it is not necessary on the "T"
