Turbo Maintainance?

[Oblivion02]

I currently have a A/T Eclipse GS-T with a 13g turbo. The car has been practically rebuilt, the engine is looking really nice... but what worries me is the Turbo. Is there anything I should do to the Turbo? Take it to a speed shop and have it checked? Clean it[somehow]? I need it to last quite a few months, maybe even a year. I plan on getting a big Evo 16G, but until I have the supporting mods and money, I'm sticking with the 13g. What should I do to make sure I have a happy life with the 13g?

Check for shaft play. I mean if it goes it goes. Just another reason to upgrade. I know you want it to last, but 14bs are direct replacement and can be had for very cheap. There are still some good ones around.

See what I mean? I wouldn't worry about it too much if your car is driving just dandy.
