turbo longevity

How long has the Greddy turbo kit been tested? If the RX-8 engine is anything like the RX-7, gasoline finds it's way into the oil. With this mix the turbo is doomed(try to find a turbo RX-7 with more than 30,000miles without a rebuilt turbo). Has anyone attempted to set up a system with a remote oil system for the turbo? It seems that a supercharger would be a much better long term investment for performance or even nitrous.
