You realize forged pistons arent going to give you a power increase, they are only going to support more power when you do upgrades like big turbo, cam, computer and what not...

Factory crank is good for just about anything you will throw at it, stock rods though i would change them, i have a brand new set of RB30 Spool H Beam rods for sale if your interested.
