Default Turbo Question

*total noob question alert*

I recently purchased a used '03 GT 5spd. I read somewhere that turbos need to 'idle down' before you kill the engine, especially after hard driving. What kinda time are we talking for a PT, and how hard do you have to run it to require this?

'00 Jeep Wrangler Sport: 2" BDS lift and swaybar disconnects, 32" BFG a/t's on Eagle 10-hole wheels. Fabtech front bumper, K&N cold air intake.

'03 PT Cruiser GT 5spd: removed muffler and airbox silencer future planned mods are K&N typhoon intake, 2" rear lowering springs, hopefully some kind of old skool mag style wheels, and possibly at least a stage 1 turbo upgrade. Oh and i GOTTA get rid of those $#@!'in flame decals!
