my wife and i are new to turbo cars. we both have had civics and crx's. someone said it is very important to let the car idle before turning off. also, any other car care info would be appreciated. we both want her evo to last

if you drive the car hard, let it idle for awhile before turning it off. In general, don't run your car hard within 3-5 minutes of turning it off. This is to keep oil circulating through the turbo to let it cool down properly.
