The purpose of a turbo timer is to let the engine run at idle for a while so the pumps can circulate coolant/oil around the turbo, letting it cool without baking the oil around it.
The 335 needs, and ***already has*** a turbo timer built in.
Fortunately, it doesn't need to run the engine to keep the oil/water flowing. The pump keeps working after engine shut down to cool the turbos, for some period of time.
Keep in mind, the upgraded ASR turbos disconnect the water lines.
So they would probably need an old-school turbo timer that keeps the engine running for a while after you 'turn it off'.
