I guessing what he meant to say is that it actually made the turbo hotter, rather than “cooling” it.

If you have any turbo that came on a Nissan vehicle stock there is absolutely no need for a turbo timer because if Nissan didn’t need it, why do you all of a sudden need it?

If you have a large, expensive, and ball bearing turbo that was just pushed for a long time at the track, then yes I could see a possible need for it.

He Said,

“Sau Deng, Sik Jiu, lei go hum gah chahn!”

English is not his first language. 🙂

Anyways, IE3.0,

to use or not to use a turbo timer, doens’t really matter, just use your head. I have them in all my turbo cars, but only use em when I have been driving really really hard with no cool down. When I’m cruising around time and have been off boost for a little while, I don’t feel the need to use em.
