1- Idled down to allow the turbo to spool down and even out the temperature in the turbo. The engine needs to be running to circulate the oil and coolant if you shut the engine down without idling the engine down it can burn the oil or coolant and in many cases both which will cause carbon blockages in the oil feed and coolant feed and hamper lubrication leading to catastrophic turbo failure.

2- Get a Turbo Timer, so the bearings in the Turbo don't seize (Refer to #1).
