Default Forged Pistons?

Hello, I知 getting my build list together for my N/A L92. Not making crazy power but should be in the 550-600 hp range. I won稚 be racing the car but I値l get on it when I知 driving. Are you guys using forged pistons for this power level on non boosted applications? Not spinning to 7,000 everyday so I was thinking of putting the forged pistons on the stock rods. Heads don稚 need milled so I just plan on getting a valve job and some porting and call it a day. Of course I知 changing other things such as the cam etc. The off the shelf piston I知 looking at would bump the compression up from 10.5:1 to. 11.39:1. I知 only going to run pump gas. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Stock pistons are fine at those power levels.

Stockers are fine for what you're looking to do and want.
