Turbo Maintenance 101
I didn't find much content on maintenance for turbochargers.
This article by WORK brought me insight to how to treat and prolong the longevity of your turbo. http://www.turborepair.com/knowledge...nance-101.html It's a good read.

There's not a whole lot of maintenance for them, it's more like healthy configuration. It's engine maintenance, like having a catch can, oil cooler. It's feeding it properly, like a clean intake filter leading to the turbo. Also, not using 2 step and having a properly set up wastegate / BOV are helpful. Good thinking though; any additional information for newer users is a step in the right direction!
EDIT: I read through the article, it has more useful information than the title leads one to believe. Definitely a good find |
