a turbo timer is a good first mod - that way you don't have to wait for the turbo to spool down whenever you get to where you're going.
if you're like me and don't mind that wait so much, you can do a manual boost controller (or electronic, if you've got the money) and a boost gauge - this way you can keep watch on your amount of boost (and keep an eye out for 'boost spikes') while running more consistant boost pressure using the controller.
no matter what you do, have fun!

the turbo timer doesnt spool down the turbo..... the timer lets the engine run to get the oil threw the lines so it doesnt get hot and bake on the lines when stoped from a hard run. But regardless some ppl just like to know why they put these parts on and what they do exaclty ...this is a good first mod. Saves life of turbo via oil circulation.
