1,000,000 out of it, I don't know if it could take the abuse I give it that long:-) After it's up to operating temperature, I get on it pretty aggressively. Funny thing is, if you listen to it, (hood open) the engine sounds pretty tight, no rattles, noises etc... I do have an oil leak from the turbo oil return gasket. I didn't have the right gasket for the return side of the turbo when I changed out the turbo. Engine appears not to burn ANY oil, I kid you not. Things I have replaced so far: turbo recently (testing some very aggressive software too hard :-) Water pump that was leaking from the vent hole(?) on the under side. My heater core is original as well. The clutch is original, but is starting to slip a bit sometimes during acceleration in the high gears. There is a smaller diameter stock clutch (for the B204 engine)installed but I have a larger diameter (for 2.3 turbo) clutch ready to go in.
I don't think being here in Europe made any difference as these cars are generally built pretty good and built to drive hard and fast :-)
