I rather suspect turbo temps aren't taken into account on most S/S turbo cars. The standard party line is that with modern turbos and oils you're safe as long as you're not on a race track. Even at freeway speed a lot of modern TD's are geared so high in top gear that the turbo's not really working too hard. A bit of DFCO before you stop is enough (doubly true on a diesel).
I have my reservations about the above though
