Smoking and Turbo Seals

[TD]

Cool. There's another thread on here with info too which is a bit bigger than this one.

Hey guys, sorry to intrude this thread but I thought I'd ask.
I'm about to purchase a 6 MPS with 152,000 kms on the clock. I've test driven it and everything is immaculate! Only reason is because the previous owner drove about 400kms each day (Bunburry-Perth) and it sits on highways most of it's life.
I've read this thread and most have problems with the turbo within 30-60k kms etc.
I'm worried about the turbo going and the dealer offered me 2 years warranty but on the booklet it just stated only 'impeller and bearings only up to 2000 dollars'
Does this include the seals? or seals are part of it? I'm sorry to sound like a clueless 2 year old. Some help would be appreciated.

Here's the car that I'm about to purchase. Let me know what you think?

upgrade straight away no point talking about just get a complete bolt up ball bearing GT28 here - GT2871R Bolt On Turbo Kit for Mazdaspeed3 (2007 thru 2010) : atpturbo.com $1750+ shipping usd the added power is a good thing but best of all no smoke at all. All thrust bearing turbos will smoke eventually my bnr does. (all turbos smoke when they're stuffed thrust bearing unit's are more prone to failure because of their design but are a lot cheaper)
or the this kit if you own a 6 - http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant...egory_Code=MS6 $2400 but comes with tip, turbo, dump pipe, filter, 3" maf housing, all reducer's and clamps + options

you wont be able to push it much because of the kilometer's most shop's wont touch anything over 120,000km unless it has a rebuilt motor because of the increased chance of failure in there warranty period due to the already "stressed" engine internals
