I've seen plenty of guys online who have been running Dodge Omni GLH Turbos since the mid '80s, or late '80s Chryslers & Dodges, and have close to 200,000 miles on them. Chrysler does their turbos right - they are properly cooled which is why many argue that you don't really need a cool down period for them. Just to be on the safe side I make it a point to enter my neighborhood from the opposite end and drive the three blocks or so to my house at around 15mph. I figure that ought to take care of any cool down I might need. I'll also cruise slowly around parking lots looking for a parking spot (or just showing off the car[8D]), which nets the same cooling result.
