Default Factory Forged

Not that I would ever give up on my Honda, but what are some cheap cars from the late 80's early 90's that came forged from the factory, that would be perfect for at least medium boost in stock form? Just wondering, I know that the K24 in the 240 SX's were forged, what else?

supra's come with forged pistons, and there is a way that you can use them in your d16.

Yeah... but for the price... and trouble of making them fit... you might as well get some aftermarket forged slugs and rods....

KA24's never came with forged pistons, forged cranks yes... I also have seen quite a few 240's with rods hanging out the side of the block, lol... in fact one I worked on a month ago that came back on the hook with a big *** hole!claiming after I did his front brakes it happened, rofl, ------- idiot.

Supra's have factory forged pistons
s2000's have factory forged pistons

The pistons may not have been forged in t he KA24DE's but the rods were, i'm sure those engines took to boosting way better than Hondas do.

Don't forget that DSM's use cast internals, and they handle the boost quite well....
