car "dieseling" when turned off after turbo timer install...

i installed my greddy turbo timer and now when i turn my car off (whether the turbo timer is activated or not) the car "diesels" when i shut it off. like it tries to stay running for a second before it kinda just dies... anyone have this happen before?

on a piston motor I'd say excessive carbon build-up.

definitely not a piston motor.. any input on why the TURBO TIMER could be causing it?

Jacob, fix your signature... or it will be deleted.

You can have 10 lines without a picture, but 15 lines and a picture is way way too much.

its not, but the problem could be the same. Excesive carbon build up causing higher compression and lighting off hot spots in the motor.
