turbo accesories?

I was wondering if someone could point me towards a site the explaine all the different turbo accesories(bov, gauges, downpipes and such) and what they do. I am somewhat interested in a TII but I don't know much about turbos at all. Do you actually need all of those accesories or do they just add hp? Also about how long do turbos last before you have to replace them> most of the TII's i ahve seen have about 120-140k on them. Is that too many miles for a TII? About how long should I expect the turbo and motor to last before a rebuild/replacemnt?

"Maximum Boost" by Corky bell, its worth the 20 or 30 bucks it costs..
How long its lasts, is a question of how hard you drive it and how little you want to take care of it..Max

Assuming that i take good care of it with regular oil changes and maintenace, and that I don't drive it too hard (maybe a bit of racing on weekends). can you make an estimation?

Assuming the previous owner(s) did what with it?
Good previous owner, even a pampered TII is gonna be need some work at that kinda mileage..
Bad previous owner, have money for engine and turbo over above the purchase price....
