the reason that they are pointless is, they are ment for cars with turbos that are oil cooled ,they let the oil circulate and cool after a hard drive, the subaru turbo isn't oil cooled,

i fitted a cheap one before findin that out, but still use it when i'm going into shops etc to let the car warm up

Same here, Warms the car up in the morning and you dont have to leave the keys in the car !!!.

Sometimes handy if you are working on the car and need it running, but have to go in and out the house/shed for tools/water ect.

As for cooling the turbo, just use common sense and drive the last stretch off boost.
