My Evo wont shut off

So the car is relatively stock, everytime I take the key out the car wont shut off. It just stays running and I can drive it.

To turn it off I just sit there and try to do random things and eventually it does turn off. Anyone know WTF is going on with this thing

It doesnt have a turbo timer at all?

If not, search on here for the electrical gremlins thread.

If your car does have a turbo timer and you somehow didnt know this post could potentially be hilarious.

Hehe that would be funny. No the car does not have a turbo timer. You can take this thing on a 5 hour road trip with no key in it.

Agreed. If there's no timer hidden anywhere, this is your problem my friend.
