If you are pulling off the interstate into a rest area, that's one thing. If you're putting along the streets to your house at 25 mph for a couple or three minutes, that's something else.
temperature of ignition is pretty much a constant - dependent on the initial temperature of the charge, the compression ratio, and the energy added. But then it expands out throught he exhaust valve, where on low throttle openings the expansion is plenty, cooling the charge.
The turbo definitely should be "cooled" before you shut it off, but that doesn't mean you have to sit there idling for a minute every time.
