it was a joke, hence ,the ,not really the traffic is too busy part.
I drive at about 2000 revs for nearly ten minutes ,works out a bit under 60 in fifth
by that time the oil pressure lowers a bit and the oil temp is upto about 60 then i'll take upto 3000 to 3500 untill the temp is upto 70,
it's true that I'm allways late for work so can't sit in the car for too long when i get there
has anyone got that turbo timer or ever had it?

A turbo timer may be of some use on some turbo cars but not Imprezas!!! The Impreza's turbo is water cooled and due to the natural convection of water, the turbo will continue to cool even after switch off = turbo timer - waste of money!!!
Why on earth can't you get to work on time??????

I had one on my Volvo T4. It was pointless - although it was sensible to run the engine after a spirited drive I had to stay by the car as the alarm wouldn't mobilise in conjunction with the turbo timer. It kind of defeated the point of having one
