Turbo information

The turbo is water and oil cooled.

 

I love that it uses the term "race track driving" for a truck... And I know exactly what they mean.

 

Thought it was th ed Tundra that had water cooled turbos not the Tacoma?

14:00 mark. Oil and coolant cooled. Also just a good video if you want to know pretty much everything about the 2024s.

 

I was thinking the intercooler being air to air. I think most turbos have coolant running thru them.

 

I’ve owned a lot of post-2000’s turbos from a variety of manufactures and generally wouldn’t worry about cool-down idling unless I was racing it. Automakers sorted out heat soak a while back, and it also helps that Toyota was absolutely obsessive with cooling & oiling on its 2.4T.

Ironically, despite the frequent chatter about cooldown, of particular importance on a modern turbo is being careful not to rev your motor too much before it’s properly warmed up.
