Default turbos

funny question, yes i know, but i'm just curious how long do turbos usually last if you don't push it too hard? i'm thinking about getting a drag kit for my gsr, but i'm scared of blowing my motor. i'm not even planning on racing it too much.

i've been runnin my ls with 163k miles at 10 psi tunned with s-afc2 with 440 cc injectors for a year now with no prblems. When a car is tunned properly you're not putting alot of strain on the motor at all.
