Timer for possible flooding issue

Hi all:

I've been reading many posts of people accidently flooding their 8's. Senseny suggested to try using a (turbo) timer to keep the 8 running so it gets up to operating temp before it shuts itself down. I can see how this little device can help with the flooding issue. My question to all, has anyone installed one of these in their 8? I was wondering how you get around the key removal with the ignition and "chipped" key? $100 is cheap insurance to keep my 8 from flooding and I would like to get one for my 8 but was wondering if anyone has tried this trick yet? Thoughts?

Kevin

Don't some high-end alarm systems with remote start have an auto-engine off feature on a timer?

I thought I'd read that in one of their brochures. If so, this would likely be a better possibility.

Just a thought.
