Big thing seems to be to manage the under hood temps better to provide longer life to the adjacent components near the turbo and downpipes.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but I think it's relative. I just bought a 2012 X5M with only 51,000 miles on it. The engine has been completely replaced with only 1,500 miles on it (with warranty).
How do you suggest keeping the underwood temps down?

Eesh! What was the cause?
Lava blanket on downpipes and turbos.
