Actually the old turbos were oil cooled, not air cooled. The oil pressure sender (a $6.50 part) in my '80 900T failed on the Ohio turnpike and the turbo was fried. I had to replace the turbo (not a cheap repair). The old turbos did need some time to cool down after you drove them hard, while the newer, water cooled ones don't.
