Also coated the mounting bolts with silicone and moved the bracket away from the mounting surfaces with fiber washers.

Two engineer friends convinced me to remove the aluminum foil where it was touching the turbo and add more silicone. Done. Ugh.

You could, next time it dies, try putting an insulator between the turbo and the actuator. Small sheet of Titanium or something like that. If you look at a big airplane, right behind the engine on the bottom of the pylon there is a piece of bare metal- that's Ti. Just for heat protection.
