Taking care of a turbo:

1. always allow the engine to run another 60 seconds before shutting down after a long or hot trip. this helps cool the turbo

2. Use full synthetic (I use Mobil1) and check the level frequently and of course do not over fill

3. Use an oil filter with a value that helps start the oil circulation as soon as the engine is started by keeping oil up at the top and not allowing it to all drain to the bottom of the filter- Mann OEM filters are best for your car.
