Let me rephrase-- there is no major ringland failure issue like there was in the past. I've seen a handful of isolated cases, all of which were heavily abused cars. One of them that I saw was the result of someone that attempted to crank up the boost and "street tune" his car.

I am not convinced the failures are due to an inherent engine issue. Unfortunately, the car is too new to rule for sure either way I guess.
