There was mention of aluminum and Porsche and air-cooled and Nikasil and =
no problems.
FWIW, I am original owner of a 145k miles "water cooled" non-turbo 944 =
which [I believe] has Nikasil coated cylinders. Engine runs perfectly =
fine. Absolutely no [performance-wise] sign of any wear. 140k of the =
145k miles were midwestern miles (Indiana, Missouri primarily).
