turbos and cooling down

Good day fellow bimmerheads

with my new F30 320i on its way I would like to know:

1)Do I need to let the car idle before swtiching it of after hard driving( fast accelleration and highish speeds), somewhere along the line I picked up the info that after heavy driving on a turbo charge motor you need to let it idle for a while to let the turbo cool down before turning it off?

2)if it is recommended that the vehicle is idled before turned off, will the ASS system not be a problem. for example lets say I accellerate hard between a few traffic lights before I stop at one, then the ASS system would create a problem by not letting the motor idle.

thanks in advance for the assistance.
