Interesting -- 906 Cylinder...

I don't know if this really is a 906/911R piston or not, but I found it interesting regarding the dimpling added to the cylinder bores and the process for doing that.

Anybody no more behind the process and the affects that it had on performance? Obviously Porsche didn't continue the process, possibly because the Nickesil process got the similar affect via a cheaper process.
