I had a full build Q50 almost 2k posts on Q50 forum.
The turbo failure is over hyped. It is definitely much much higher than it should be.
Most are actually not tuned or modded although this pool is obviously larger than the tuned/modded group but those seem to have minimal impact or cause.
A lot of these owners at least active ones on the forum aren’t from VQ platform, and most of them mistakenly even think you’re supposed to short shift before 6k rpm.

Drop bear has come out with a manifold to allow port injection.
But 1700CC direct injection injectors can push a lot of power, with DI you can safely run over .5 leaner AFR. With the Spool fx-180 HPFP and 1700cc injectors you have the fuel for some crazy power. Theres a pure stage 2 build that broke 700whp w/ 600wtq+ I believe he’s on stock block too.
