How long do you let your Evo warm up before you drive it?
Do you drive and no turbo
or do you let it warm up for a while
Until the needle of coolant gauge raises , but when in a hurry just start the engine and drive slowly

10 seconds and then keep rpms low and out of boost till the oil temp gauge moves. By the time the oil temp moves the coolant is at normal operating temp.
