I know you all probably have one, but which ones? is there any you'd avoid or couldn't recommend enough? :)

I am my turbo timer, I have the built in ability to judge how long to run my car for after a drive depending on how I drove it. Fully fitted I cost myself nothing and come with unlimited warrenty provided by the nhs.

Lol I not too sure on the electric ones though lol

Geof anything you don't have seems to be chavvy, does this mean your the trend setter lol.

I would save ya dosh and put summat on the car to make it faster :D like a stripe ;) na only joking. But for the sake of staying in the car for like 30 seconds or driving like a grandad for the last few mins of ya journey I know what I prefer doing but I'm tight lol

I have one but only cos it came with the car. I hardly use it except to take the Kees out to unlock the garage door.
Prefer to take it steady for a couple miles on my way home instead cos at the end of the day petrol stations don't like them and you can't lock the car and walk away from it till its stopped anyway :)

If you haven't got one, don't install one. Drive off boost and calmly for the last 2-3 miles and turn it straight off :) forward motion helps the turbo cool better than sitting still for minutes, as the oil will actually gain temperature again and won't help the turbo core.

jump in car,, wait all of 10 seconds, rag the shiiite clean out of it, and when you stop off, turn off look doors and go about your business with the smile still left on your face,,

Well its the whole, walk away from car whilst its still running and people thinking you left keys in etc. Like I said though, I'm not 100% on that. Guess different companies will be different
