Well, on a turbo'd engine that remains to be seen of course. Even Porsche had sealing issues with about 10% of their Nikasils cyinders on the 964 N/A and replaced all of them with an extra ring in a groove in both the head and the alu cylinder.
I believe Charles does offer an extra sealing ring of inconel that resembles Porsches solution to the sealing problem.
In the far future, I want to try it (nikasils with a turbo without extra grooved sealing ring) as well tho...
Greetings,
Walter
