I've seen turbos that lasted 200,000 miles and turbos that didn't even make it to 20,000 under normal driving. Give us more data about the kit, turbos, size. For example if the turbos are undersized and the WG is too tight, then you're over running the turbos and will dye soon, even if they are ball bearing.
I can't really get into the details, but these turbos should be capable of 800HP or so and I only plan on using maybe 650HP at 7psi of boost...The dealer/manufacturer is reputable.
