Congratulations, you have answered three very correct responses to your own question.
Add also, combustion chamber efficiency, hot-spots, A/F-R, inlet temps.
More information is needed. EG is it well tuned on awesome fuel and using 70deg advance at full load/revs?

I have a standard 4agze motor
t3/t4 dash 2 exhaust wheel and housing
i was using standard fuel the mech says it was the turbo boosting too high about 1.2bar that's why it detonated .

it's wierd it broke out there than lifting/curving/breaking up the top ring land first.
yea an aftermarket engine management set-up is best (and properly tuned like mentioned) if you want to run high amounts of boost, and a good i/c set-up.
though i am having better luck useing my 9.4:1 casties than i did with the gze forgies....
