Question Turbo Cooling?

I was doing some reading on turbo timers and I came across this little article...Can you guys tell me if this is B.S. or if there is some truth to it...It sounds a bit bogus to me.

Its true. Do a search and you'll see countless debates over turbo timers. You DON'T need one. I got one anyway, but I'm planning on removing it...

True, but get a turbo timer if it gives you piece of mind. As long as you can shut it off in the event of a rollover or accident, it will do no harm.
