Source please?
The problem has only been common in the EJ257, mostly as a result of the hypereteutic pistons.
If you think piston construction doesn't have anything to do with these failures, you should do some more research as to what a ringland is.
Every STI I've seen that has run into ringland issues has had all the telltale signs of detonation prior to issues, with an owner too hard-headed to fix the root cause.
