Only if your too lazy to do it yourself but this is also why the watercooled center section of most all modern turbos is meant to be used is to keep the turbo bearings from "cooking" the oil and clogging the bearings. Unless you are doing some serious thrashing "timing" isn't exactly necessary but like it was mentioned above is more of a "peace of mind" doing. Now if they didn't have the center bearings water cooled then YES TURBO TIME!!! I think as long as you use synthetic oil (good quality) and the turbo center bearing is water cooled then you shouldn't have a necessity to turbo time it as both the oil and the water cooling will help to keep the temperature from getting too high and coaking them.
