Warming up/cooling down

[Dan B89]

Hello all, as a newbie I thought would ask the pros, what time is best to let Subaru warm up/cool down before and after fun time, i wasn't sure on best time scale

You will get all sorts of opinions on this. I always let a warm up for at least a minute before heading off and quite a bit more until I will go above 3000rpm. No oil temp so just sensible guess work for me. I always let the fans run if they are on before switching off or tick over for a while if i have been hooning around to let the turbo cool down. The WRX uses coolant vapour to help with instant switching off but best to help it. See what others say. Modern oils are very good so just dont hoon until she is well warm.
