Just need to do a search, everything you want to know is pretty mich here.

If Ive ran my car hard I always let it idle down a little while before I turn it off, keeping the coolant and oil running

Airplanes often have cylinder head temperature gauges. I bet you could use one of them to monitor turbo temp (though I doubt you need it)
