Being on boost and then just letting the revs back down is enough to stop the turbo speed right down. If you've been spanking it all the way and then shut it off as long as your turbo speed is back down which happens in 2 seconds then wouldn't worry. It's more if you shut it down while on boost damage is done ...
ahh okay I see, so im guessing its probably something to do with oil pressure just suddenly stopping (if you shut the car off while on boost) which can do the damage like you say?

Guy at my work had one on a Supra, parked it up at 830 and left it running, I walked back to my car at 600 and it was surrounded by an orange stain. It never cut out, and sat there boiling with no fans until the headgasket went in epic fashion...
oh dear...
, im guessing the guy wasn't ever so happy about that then? lol i'm a massive fan of the supra's so i would of hated to have seen that haha
