AFAIK, supercores are POM, more or less the same as Lonex reds. plus with the Lonex, you don't have to move the rack backwards for DSGs.
Prommy hards are kinda brittle, but pretty darn strong.

both are really expensive.

SHS 15t are glass-filled nylon fiber with steel racks. it's just about the best material available (right now) for AEG pistons.
seriously, a lightened 15t with epoxy or CA glue will last WAAAAAY longer and you can just buy like 4 of them. I don't see why people would want to talk you out of a DSG that's already been built, it's too late for that. =D

get the 15t, lighten the sh*t out of it (like REALLY REALLY light. the 15t is lighter than the red, but you still have to take out WAAAY more than you did on the red)
