Well, all turbos, water cooled or not have oil circulating through them. Water cooling is just a method of using coolant as a heat sink to reduce the coking effect of oil in the turbo's center housing, increasing the longetivity of turbo life. I'd like a turbo timer to simply keep the car on after shut down so the hot oil can circulate out of the turbo instead of just sitting there. If you're saying that water cooling negates the need for a turbo timer, I don't think thats correct...I think its beneficial either way.
And...ROFL on the wheels debate. They're going black. I don't like the look of a lighter colored wheel on a dark silver car, looks odd to me so black it is.
