This also applies to high performance car turbo engines, a “turbo timer” is used so the ignition can’t be shut off until the turbo cools down.

Turbo timers are a legacy from the days when turbos were primarily oil cooled and synthetic oil wasn't common and shutting down a glowing hot turbo would tend to create sludge if done habitually.
