I think the original TRX is still running on pretty much all the stock engine parts, got a set of low comp pistons early in life
I think the parts list is a throttle cable and a drive chain in well over 10,000km

1st Apex(mcx) - 2000 km's @12 lbs then 2400 kms @ 17lbs, i sold it and now it has almost 7000 kms. The motor has never been touched since the first day the head shim was installed.
2nd Apex(mcx) - 3400 kms at 18lbs of boost, same deal motor was opened for the shim and still hasnt been touched. I believe its got 4500 or 5000 kms on it now.
3rd - Nytro(mcx) @ 14lbs and ive got about 350 or 400 kms on it and all is well.

I know of a TRX(mcx) with over 20,000 km's on it ranging 10 to 10 lbs of boost, it had a water pump replaced at 17,000 kms.

DOO 800. 5+ years on the Aero. Unknown mileage. Only probs, one set of reeds and one piston. Should have backed out she said she was hot! LOL
10-12lbs boost with low comp. head.
 
M6- 2005 bought new last February specifically to turbo. 18 mile no boost break-in for the belt :), and a little over 400 miles with no issues other than charge box rubbing underside bulkhead bolt and trying to wear a hole through it-- and fiddlin' with that bd box (insert knock on wood). Most favorite 2date.

700 Dragon with about 500 miles on stock engine which ate a piston at 150miles and a broken pull rope at 450miles. Now 80 miles so far on BD turbo at 10-11lbs. Not a problem so far except a leaky shock... probably from all the wheelies?

I put my first 50 miles on yesterday and it was great!!! Got it all dialed in, now I hope to just ride... I went with the SPS kit on a 700 Dragon. FUN, all around sled and set up. Not going to beat the Boondockers on the straight pulls, but a ton of FUN!!!!!

1250 miles on BD Turbo M7, no motor issues whatsoever. BD box failed due to improper reseal at the factory. Still didnt hurt the motor.

52 miles on OVS Turbo M8, nothing bad yet..................all really good so far.

350 Miles at 12-14lbs of boost on MCX turbo APEX, I would bet it has close to 700 now. I had no problems, I believe he had either a bushing or a bearing start to seize on the turbo. Never got lubed over the summer most likely? Dunno.

150 miles on Shift 600 turbo!! No failures (new record I think). If I can repeat this 150 miles about 30 times, I'll be happy.

Aerocharger system full boost open with direct injected nitrous 2 stroke. We get about 10,000 feet per top end and if I'm really paying attention we can actually tear down and save the juggies. If not or timing is bad it goes POOF. I bet it's the world record smallest cc to most hp to match the least amount of miles per rebuild. Thank the sled gods for screens...Silly!
