It is not mileage but condition of the car. I have heard of people turboing a 200XXX mile vehicle. It all depends on the condition and tune. You can not expect a stock motor with 150xxx or so miles to last making 300hp. It is possible, but I would not try it with my daily driver. Get a compression check and leakdown test on the motor and that will let you know where you stand. If the motor is in good condition then go conservative, but once you boost you will want more.
