If you quickly search for their use you will find most people don't use them as they're are quite pointless in daily driving.
Start car, drive off, warm up for a few miles.
Stay off boost for a mile or so before destination and switch off.

I do believe as most turbo timers bypass the thatcham devices it invalidates your insurance, I also believe it is illegal to leave a car with the engine running (keys in or not)

Ditto, my rule of thumb is no more than 3k revs and very considerate throttle until 2x the time it takes the water to get up to temp. if yours is like mine it will let you know when its cold!
