For a Fabia 2?

Pd 105?

Why do you want a turbo timer? They are the work of the devil.

because im planning on getting a stage 2 turbo intercooler re map and so on and a timer would be very helpful. letting it warm up and cool down are essentials for turbo

fabia VRS PD130

Edited the title for you.

You basically can not fit a turbo timer to a derv. Not sure why - It could even be possible but I know of no-one who has actually done it. I run a big turbo, etc etc, and i don't need one. Just take care and give it a little rest at the end of some WOT to give time for the oil to circulate and the turbo to cool down.

Fitting a turbo timer and keeping the engine running is exactly what you DON'T want when you're trying to cool a turbo down. Just fit a decent oil temperature gauge and drive accordingly.

Turbo timers are nothing but chav-sessories for the Halfords generation.

Yep

Pointless

The turbo only needs cooling if youve been ragging it a shortly before you turn it off, odds are the rest of the car would also be hot so that all needs cooling, a gentle run a mile or 2 before you switch off is all thats required.

To add Turbo race cars including Le mans 24 hour cars are switched off for refuelling, ie ragged to the limit & then straight off, they seem to survive

They get rebuilt fairly often as well
