Nothing physically you can do to the turbo...
Use good quality gasoline - keeps the deposits down
Change your oil - keeps lubrication to the turbo up
ALWAYS COOL YOUR TURBO DOWN AFTER A HARD RUN - people will use turbo timers to do this also.

change oil every 2500 miles, tuneups/plugs every 18-22K miles.

Other than that mabey the 1 time teflon oil addative to reduce friction.

Don't run without an air filter. Although this sounds like common sense, I have heard of people abusing their turbines by running them open.
