I don't see that it is that big a deal. The main problem is when a turbo is in boost and is suddenly shut down. Caterpillar, in the manual that came with my truck, was apparently not very concerned. I believe that it is because it is so rare for a truck to get shut off when in boost. The scenario nearly all the time with any machine is that it gets throttled down and run at lower RPMs and light load until it gets to its parking place. Two major examples where you need to be concerned is a tractor under PTO load or when one stalls under drawbar load. I was working on a tractor that I bought used, and had the intake pipe off the turbo. I noticed that the wheel did not spin freely. I removed the oil pipes and sprayed WD-40 into the oil inlet until it came out clear, and it freed up. Another tractor came with a sticker on the inside of a window that said to cool it for five minutes if it was to be shut down after being under load.
