As for the pistons, I would personally not put a set of cast pistons in a forced induction engine. Get some good quality 2618 forged slugs. Cast pistons are just asking for issues in my opinion. Do it right if you are going through the time and expense. It's only a couple hundred more for forged.
just to let you know,vitaras can hold well over 400whp with eagle rods and arps. if i was building a race car then i would go forged.for a daily/weekend toy vitaras are great.
