Couple of questions about turbo chargers. First: How long do they typically last? After a couple of repairs I finally got my 2000 on the road today. Even when I test drove it back in Nov, it just didn't seem to have a lot of umf and I never hear it spool up. Having said that I can't get it to smoke at all (not that I'm into belching fuel out the tail pipe) so the turbo might be fine.
Second: Is there anything to watch out for when buying a replacement torbo? I noticed that they sell as low as $300 on eBay while others are $500 or more. Love the idea of saving money but hate the idea of "crying twice".
Thanks
