Default torque or bhp kills t5 box ?

just sat here thinking about this. my old car had 30 psi t4 boost spike at about 4k and came in very hard and would regularly trash 2nd or 3rd gear. my current car has less torque low down but more top end bhp and no gearbox trouble whatsoever so is it the big punch of torque power low down that kills a t5 ?
