Turbo Q's
If I was to put in a turbo, how much life could I expect out of my car? Some people are saying 50,000 miles tops... but that sounds a bit shallow for a toyota? Anybody know anything about it?

How long would the tires last? depends on the tire and useage. I figure my Stock tires are going to last me 15K miles or so, of course I dog the hell out of my car. (At least for another 70K miles ;))

Your xB won't last long if plan on having more than 7 psi. That and the fact that the injectors, and fuel pump won't be able to keep up. The OEM ECU is only good for normally aspirated engines. The code needs to be cracked first, or some sort of system to piggyback it.

screw fuel , that all can be fixed it's the fact that the rods can only last about 50k on 7 psi if driven hard , they are weak . unfortunatelt, stroke it and use better rods and bam u got reliability there.
