Oil change no later than 4,000 miles, drain the water out of the fuel every month, change the fuel filter no later than 25,000 miles

Turbo....Get a good stock equivalent aftermarket. The stock one is ok, but if you haven't seen it yet, it's gonna be caked with dirt and oil (really poor oil drain setup). Replace the boost hoses while your at it to. Go through and change all the filters, engine oil, and test strip the coolant. Chances are, it's never been changed, and that's something else to consider.
