Default STS pump can you run a timer?

On the STS oil pump I would like to have the pump run for about 10 seconds after I shut the engine off to scavange all the oil from the turbo and return line. Is there a simple way of doing this by keeping power applied to the relay for 5 to 10 seconds?

I don't see it being a problem, but you'd have to rig up something with a timer.

Well this is my bootleg way. I have a mocal pump since my sts harness is no longer used I source a 12v spot of my cigarette lighter. I used a 20amp switch that use to control my boost control from sts. Its very straight forward if u know how to wire **** up. I also have a dummy light and the buzzer hook up just in case of pump failure. Thats how I run my pump for about 10 seconds after I shut it down. Mind you all of this is manual so if u dont like flicking switches then dont do it.
