FYI the turbocharger gets its lubrication from the engine and many turbocharger failures are attributed to poor lubrication that cause their bearings (babbitt) to seize and the thermal stress brought about by poor water cooling. Now these things are done by the engine's ancillaries, ie, oil pump and water pump. Just because the turbocharger was made by Garrett does not mean that we can put all the blame to it when it fails. You should also consider the "lifeblood" that gets it running for a long period of time.
