Typically turbo will last a long time only if you have 2 things for them.* EGT gauge* Good oil and oil filtersIf you keep the EGT's down so you not melting the turbo and over heating the bearings as well as allowing the turbo to cool down before shutting off. Most look for about 300*F before shutting down. As for oil you don't need any fancy synthetic oils but a good name brand petroleum oil that is CI-4 or CJ-4 grade that is 15w-40 typically. Most here opt for Fleetguard oil filters. I'm switching back over to NAPA Gold filter from here on out.But Hex0rz got the article for ya...
