Tried and true with ringland failure right?

I love STI's so I am not trying to hate, but almost EVERYONE I know who has one (stock, and modded) is on engine # 2 or 3. Subaru does seem to be pretty good about picking up the warranty claims but still would make me nervous to buy one since there is no way I could leave it stock.
