Default Turbo timer

Has anyone installed a turbo timer in their ls4? How difficult is it? Can it be done? what timer did you choose and why?

Gotta ask - does your turbo have a water cooled center section? If so, there's not much point in a turbo timer, especially when using synthetic oil. The turbo housing won't heat up enough to "coke" the oil and restrict oil flow/damage bearings.

You would probably have better results by posting in one of the main sections.
