Ive just been doing some more research and it looks like suzuki vitara pistons from the g16 engine go straight in with no mods (except honda piston rings) and can handle more boost than stock d16 pistons, could be a cheaper alternative to forged pistons

Could be worth looking into.

its also a proven secret that if you let the engine drunk up some sand, it will port the intake and polish the pistons and clean out a ton of carbon.
