i dont use oil in my turbo because i figure the coolant will cool it down enough. the advantage to that is not worrying about the turbo cooking up any oil, therefore not needing a turbo timer.

yeah i can recommend one, you / your key / your patience / 30 seconds of your time.

hmm, so if I have an old turbo timer around that I bought really cheap, is there any benefit at all of putting it in? Or would I be better off selling it?

If you have it, why not just put it in... A lot of times, I wish I had one.
There are so many times I just want to pull into the parking spot and jump out of the car. But I can't due to spool down; especially at autocross events or drag races.

I don't have one because I'm waiting for a PnP to come out...someday.

I agree the MS3 does not "require" one...but it sure comes in handy when you don't have one.
