Default Ceramic coating

Does anybody know of any problems with ceramic coating combustion cambers & the front face of the valves I have a 2.3 I4 that I am turboing The problem that has been pointed out to me is that the combustion chambers are large which does not leave much meat between the chambers (bores) & could anal with the heat & loose its grip on the head gasket which is about 6mm between the bores I am looking for about 400bhp but now worried about this, but ceramic coating should fix it (or not) but is it prone to flaking etc

PS the engine is built so I would have to take the head off & stripped to get it done but I dont want to damage the head as its all been ported.
