With all the turbo specialists here, think it might be appropriate to ask. Before shutting the car down I always let it cool by letting my car idle for about 2 minutes. As stupid as this sounds, am I over doing it?
I use my boost guage to try an stay off boost for the last leg of my drive (about 2-3 mins) and then can shut it off. Works better than idle as you have air flow through the engine and proper oil pressure; 12 years and no issues. As stated above it is key to run a high quality oil.
