Why must turbo-charged engine idle prior to shutdown?
Turbo charged engines must be idled down to allow the turbo to spool down and even out the temperature in the turbo this is done either by using oil cooling or the engine coolant or both in combination.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 (fires and explosions)

The turbo actuator is a critical component for a turbocharged engine and it can be tricky to put back on with the turbo still on the engine. To ensure the job is done safely and correctly its important that you follow the steps below: Disconnect the battery to ensure that no power is running to the engine. Locate the turbo actuator and loosen the clamp that holds it in place. You may need to use a wrench or socket to do this. Carefully remove the turbo actuator from the engine and set it aside. Clean the area around the turbo actuator and make sure it is free of debris. Reinstall the turbo actuator and tighten the clamp. Reconnect the battery and start the engine. Check the turbo actuator for proper operation.By following these steps you should be able to successfully get the turbo actuator back on with the turbo still on the motor. Remember to take all necessary precautions when working on a turbocharged engine and always have a qualified mechanic do the job if you are not comfortable doing it yourself.

Will driving with a blown turbo damage the car?
Yes you can damage the car by driving with a blown turbo. The most damage would be done to the engine because at high rpms it can begin to scrape metal on metal causing shards of the turbo to enter into the engine. Also if you accelerate at i high rate, it may begin to smoke because of the oil in the turbo. Damage may also be done to the exhaust. Accelerate slowly, check your oil and coolant, and you should be ok. But you're going to want to change that turbo out asap!

i dont know alot about toyotas but ive done it in my dodge shadow.... if the engine blocks are the same and bolt up the same....then the only thing you might need to look into is the wiring harness and the computer for the turbo engine.. but before you do this i suggest getting the wiring book from the dealership for the car or just ...make it fit haha the non turbo is 5sfe engine where as the turbo is a 3sgte engine. now you can do a swap [i suggest Google how to do so] but in order to not risk anything there are a few other things u need to swap such as the rear axles.
