My new alarm came with a Turbo Timer Option. Tried it the other day and it works. Leaves the car running for 2 and a half minutes before the engine shuts down. Im not sure however what impact this will have on a stock S2000. Any comment appreciated. Better? Worse? No Difference?

would not have thought it will make any difference at all the name says it all "turbo timer" its meant for the cooling down period for the turbo.Usually you have the facility to adjust the lenght of time also.

No Difference, a turbo timer is meant to keep the car at idle while oil cycles through the turbo and it cools down.. There is no reason whatsoever to have this on a non turbo car..
