Greddy is nice, but don't bother. Just do it manually if you have been running hard.

You drive an Audi and your time's not worth eighty bucks?

Default Forgive me my turbo ignorance - I've always driven N/A cars...
what's a turbo timer? Is it like a boost gauge?

it keeps the engine running for a few minutes after you leave the car.

Default Since I am unemployed now no. But anyway, I think the TT is unecessary in regular driving. And the
few times I stop after hard driving (never really since there is always some sort of cool down while driving) I can just wait a minute. Saves money and more importanly saves the install time and having a klugy piece of equipment tacked on the car. In my previous car I had a EGT gauge and I can tell you that except for track days, the exhaust temps bottomed out after a minute of idling every time.
