I'm going with a 5sfe build and I need to find a good set of Forged Pistons to handle (high rpms...moderately speaking). What's out there? Anyone with a set they got and the pistons have proven themselves??

yea you gotta keep off the boost or use it easily during break in; I learned that with a talon I had after I had it built. I threw on a manual boost control and boosted it to 17 psi from its stock setting of 11 psi. That any my block off bearing to the balance shaft elimination kit (which was installed backwards) lead to spinning all 4 rod bearings. It sucked. I really want to build my 5s for N/A but that turbo option is like the devil on my shoulder...it keeps nagging me and nagging me so I do but I don't want to get high comp. pistons.
