On a factory turbo car lines and stuff are routed to where nothing is going to get hurt. Factory turbos usually have some sort of heat shield to help too.
GOOD aftermarket kits will take the same thing into account.
People who make their own set up need to take things like that into account. My cousin put a turbo on his 91 Civic hatch and routed everything to where melting wouldn't be an issue.

Years ago I coined a term for this I like to call EFS or Elmer Fudd Syndrome. We always had guys come into the shop with amps bridged into too low a load and I would tell them that they were going to blow the amp up and always got the "I've been running it this way for 6 months", couple of days later they would come back and ask if I could fix their amp.
So now that this guy knows it won't be long now.

Who cares. Just sit back and watch.
But unless he knows nothing will happen.
Did you guys ever watch Looney Toons where Elmer Fudd chases Bugs around and goes off a cliff and then turns around and walks back and Bugs says he should have fallen because of gravity? Then after that Bugs puts out a book on gravity that Elmer picks up and starts to read he falls off the cliff (now that he knows about gravity)?
EFS!
Well you can offer a suggestion but after that - ain't wasting my time trying to convince anyone.
the problem is that the "guy" will only here "turbos make your car faster" and then throw a turbo on it with nothing supporting it or even a tune then the motor will blow up.
