They are known to burn out a lot between the cylinders. They were only designed for normally aspirated 1.9 CVH to start with so the extra heat from a turbo engine doesn't do them much good. They are actually a down grade from the standard Ford gasket.

I have seen them fail on cars that are abused and cars that are hardly ever abused so it's a bit luck of the draw to how long it lasts.
