I've tried to find issues with this coating online.... I couldn't find anything concerning unreliability on a broad spectrum. In fact, it seems to be the preferred coating for racing engines.
Since our engines are NISSANIZED Mercedes engines. I looked up the Mercedes engine reliability on there turbo built engines. It seems Mercedes is a leader in turbocharged reliability...

I'm totally confident in this new VR. The one thing Nissan and Mercedes have both had in common are bullet proof engines. If Porsche was the partner? Maybe I'd have concern?

Porsche~Audi~Volkswagen are there own group and will share their own issues.
