Hello Guys,
As the title states has anyone built a cooling circuit for turbo after truck is turned OFF??
I find it hard to believe our $50K trucks are not equipped with fan and timer to cool the turbo!!!
Our manual has idle times you are suppose to what before turning off the engine to allow the turbo to cool so we can waste more fuel because the Ram Engineers where asleep at the drawing board!!
Some where I heard or read on new Ram trucks this will be standard, is this true??
My wife is driving 2012 VW Jetta TDI it was only $25K car and this turbo cooler was built in.
When you turn off her car a fan stays until the turbo comes down to certain temperature no idling necessary!!!!
I am thinking of building something perhaps a 12v electric fan aimed at the turbo on a timer??
It could be wired to the fuel cut of solenoid,turn off the truck starts the fan wired to either battery with a fuse which starts the timer??
Regards
Don
