I agree with what has been said earlier about EGT's being lower. Coking really only occurs in a turbo that has just been run really hard above 1,000 degrees and shut off with no cool down time at all. if your driving like a granny your turbo probably won't ever spool up so you won't have any worries about heat soak.
