Just for a balanced opinion, I've had no issues with my T5's Turbo system at all for the 10 years I've owned the car and covered 80,000 miles driven using full boost on a daily basis.

I think the problems start when owners tune or trick the ECU into delivering more power without putting safeguards in place.
