I don't think you can find a decent set of forged aluminum 4.030" pistons for under 400 new. I'd check the classifieds.

You can find cheap forged pistons for around $400 from a few vendors, but where are you going to get the money for the machine work, bearings, assembly, etc.?

Look at the Mahle PowerPak, once you consider the included rings, pins, coatings they are a very good value.

IF you find something that actually fits your current wishes it will probably be a thick parasitic ringpack that causes excessive bore wear and the piston will likely be heavier adding stress to the rod bolts, probably not the step forward you were hoping for.

You can get a nice set of JE forged alum pistons in any style you want for a ~$700 on Summit, but that's more than you were looking to spend.

First off, do you really need forged pistons? are you planning to spray? Look at the 427,,Hyper pistons.....

with boost I wouldn't risk hyper pistons, n/a and moderate n2o I'd be a little more willing
