How long is a piece of string? Heard of some being stuffed after 30 odd thou. Others are still going strong after 200. Too many factors to give a def. answer. All it takes is a blocked oil supply line to kill a turbo.

if you thrash anything you will reduce its life span. treat it with love (that doesnt have to mean 'no fun') and it will love you.

ive seen turbos chew themselves up at just over 100k, or 300k. keep oil feed line clear and filter clean.

There are many factors but if you keep that crappy inline filter in then expect it to last 30 to 50k. Take it out and it will last much longer.

I know this from experience and a $2000 bill to fix it
