Engine Warm Up

I have been reading almost everything on Felix's FAQ's page and i came across improper engine warm up. I'm assuming that i should let my car warm up to operational temperature before i shut it down or at least 2 minutes at felix says. So does that mean i can start it cold in the winter and drive it immediately till its warm then shut it down, or do i have to actually warm it up before i run it? Seems like a silly question but these engines differ from a boinger! Thanx ~Gavin

Being that you have a GSL-SE, I'd definately make sure the car reaches normal operating temperature before shutting off, to help avoid flooding the engine.
