After how many miles will the turbos require changing?
Is there anyway to tell if they aren't working properly and require replacement ?
And what's the price + labor for such a change?

Thanks!

depends on how they have been treated, if they are at stock boost, they should last longer. if your at bpu boost levels of 18+ psi they won't last as long as they would at stock boost. you can get a decent used set here or on the parts trader for ~ 400-800 dollars.

the last member offered a price opinion on parts; i will quote labor. i just got a quote from my local turbo-head shop of $700 labor to remove and reinstall the stock twins (no parts or rebuild included). the dude there said that the Toyota house would be a bit heavier in the price.
