I'm with Mike K. on this one. I'll take a 2.5l over a 2.0, or 2.2 for use with pump gas every day, no matter what the internals. Of course, I'd prefer forged.
P.S. Do we know up to what VIN had forged internals on the US STI? Might be worth thinking about when looking for a used one.

Thanks Dean I think you get it!!!!!
we have a winner
I guess Kevin even if you feel you have to teach me how an engine works is great to have a the info posted some where.
when I'm talking about forged pistons I would assume everything around it would be improved so everthing went toogether well and not just the pistons themselves, so I may have been missleading in the beginning of this post. I just figured if you knew I wanted forged pistons and was going to remove my engine I would look at changing a lot more then just the pistons themselves (what a hassel). knowing that SOA didnt put them in there eventhough they put something just as good as them doesnt mean they went the extra step with other parts around it as well.
