    Default Forged Internals on Factory Supercharged Vt?

    Heya all

    Ive been waiting to ask this for quite a few days now (thank god for our new host!).

    Does anyone know if the Vt factory supercharged engine came with forged or strengthened internals? I googled it and came up with:

    "The heads and manifold, the injectors and fuel rails, bottom harmonic balancer, Computer/chip Cam, pistons, rods, crank are all different to the standard ECOTEC engines."

    It doesnt really state that their forged or reenforced just "different" to standard ecotec internals :S

    I remember doing some research on them some time ago, there are a couple of parts that are strengthened compared to the normal ecotec. I dont remembered reading they were Forged, just stronger than the standard ecotec.
