Aren't your kkk turbos watercooled? Don't they have their own pump that spins for a minute or two after you turn off the motor?

Luke;

All the air-cooled turbo's are oil lubed only. They do not have water cooling available, you would have to make a radiator and add a electric pump. That is why it is so important to let the engine cool down.

Thanks all for the excellent advice and information. I hope nobody mistook the gist of my post to be doubting the very sound and knowledgeable advice on turbo cool down periods in this thread - I was simply trying to get a better feel for the issue which I did, thank you very much, from your responses.
Cheers,
M
