it all depends how well the install was done, the tuning and how u drive it... imo ur driving it right and getting your money's worth if ur stock motor blows eventually

Totally correct, a turbo engine is all about tuning. If you have the motor tuned very well, then it has the possibility to last jsut a long as any other motor built from the factory.
