Is there any way I can keep the water pump for the turbo running for a longer period of time? I leave the car on for about 5 minutes after I run it. Any other way?

You don't think it runs long enough stock? The low-tech way would probably be to run a new circuit and timer in parallel, but I'm not sure it's necessary.

actually I was just curious. Anything to lengthen the life of my turbo

Get a lower-temp thermoswitch on the turbo. I've got one on my upgrade turbo and the water-pump will run for 5-15 minutes after I shut off. Sometimes, if things got really heated up, it'll run for 25 minutes or so.

thanks danno, how much does it cost?

Danno

I think something like $10-15. Call around at your local auto parts places for them. THere's a Nippon-Denso unit (metric threads) that will work just fine.
