This is primarily a problem of bolts coming loose. Usually its the 4 holed square gasket between the exhaust manifold and the turbo. This is the common place because the bolts here do not have locking washers and can rattle loose very easily.

If you use the proper locking washers for that gasket you shouldnt have any problems. I have had SR's for 3 years, never had a gasket blow out on me.
