icedeocampo said:but then again, do ride it at WOT all the time? the reason tiba's plating falls of because, his setup is for racing... i believe that if you use a racing cylinder for everyday user, it'll last for a long time.
tiba_karotsu said:no my friend it's definitely a bad plating, the plating broke off near the top of the cilinder which is above the left transfer port. i didn't nick the cilinder wall when i ported my MHR LC barrel, Malossi factory nikasil isn't just as good as aftermarket nikasil.

1. Wrong type of dremel bit.
2. Speed of the Dremel was wrong.
