to keep a long explanation short.... the job of the turbo is to compress the incoming air to increase air amount per cubic foot (or some similar measurement) also the reason why turbos have larger fuel injectors. you dont want to starve the engine with too little fuel and too much air. this results in more horsepower

A turbo timer is a device which keeps the engine running after the key is removed. The purpose of the TT is to continue cooling the turbo by circulating oil through the turbo's oil lines, to avoid the effect of oil coking, in which oil sits in the hot lines, bakes, and develop deposits that may degrade turbo bearing performance. A turbo timer is not required of all vehicles - the Subaru WRX owner manual specifically addresses this issue, but some older vehicles will benefit from the practice of installing one.

The 2 most common wastegate designs are: 1. a series veins that surround the exhaust wheel of the turbo and pivot to open and close off the pathway to the exhaust wheel. 2. a swinging plug that opens a hole at peak boost and allows exhaust gasses to pass whithout spinning the turbo any further.
