I agree on the Rotrex units. Turbos leak and fail too though. I would not expect the turbo in a $3k kit to outlast an Eaton TVS.

I have the SBD and so do a few guys here in Atlanta and I know some guys personally who have driven 55-60k miles without turbo or engine failure on a "supposedly" cheap turbo.
