Default 6.0 lt. Pistons?

Who makes a fairly inexpensive forged or hyper. piston for a standard bore 6.0 lt. -not stroked- budget build up!
Low comp. for turbo application.
Thanks-Dominic

Mahle, diamond?? There is no such thing as a cheap forged piston. Probably get a set of pistons and rings for 650-700. I would pick up some inexpensive rods for 400-550 also. (eagle, callies compstar, etc.)

Wiseco... I got some... but by budget do you mean $600+ with rings.. and then getting rods? Cuz I was thinking budget... and well, that was 6000$ ago, and I still have no boost... or a car for that matter... just engine, trans, rear...
