Hi guys this topic interests me, I fly a Cessna turbo 210 and I too have a different method to you. In my descents I leave the cowl flaps closed and I start my descend really early. I do not adjust the mp as I believe pulling back the mp slowly during descend allows the heads to get too cool. I know the twins are a lot faster machines. I also religiously allow the motor to idle for 5 minutes after every flight. Some people say 3 minutes is ok, but in the operators manual it reccomends atleast 5 minutes and I take the manuals word above word of mouth!
