I agree that 100,xxx is possible but unfortunately the majority of us will get lazy after a year or two and IMO 75,xxx is good number to start considering a turbo rebuild kit.

They say that with a good supply of clean oil a turbo will last longer than an engine. The key is oil, same with anything internal combustion. 75K-100K is common.
