How does this turbo look?

How good is the TSI Garrett Turbo like the one listed here (extreme)
http://www.prostreetonline.com/pso/p...s/tsiturbo.asp

also yall dont think 122k miles is too much to be adding a turbo on? roughly when would it croak on me? (turbo and/or motor)

thx again 8-)

theres alot of factors that determin how long your motor will run under boost, the t25 turbo is a great choice thats what ill be using, i have about 157k on my d16a6 with no internal mods. it all depends on what fuel system your using wether or not youll be using an intercooler and just other small factors.

Do a compression/leak down test that will give you hard #s.
