Are the pistons in the turbo motors cast of forged ? All I have to go
on is the FSM and a SAE paper on the motor that states that the
pistons in the turbo model are of the Thermoflow type.

Another question for anyone
Some of them are, but it depends on model and year. A 220hp BF Legacy
RS-type RA has, a 275hp BG Legacy GT-B has... a 200hp BF Legacy RS does not,
a 250hp BG GT does not.
Whilst they are commonly referred to being a forged type, that is not quite
accurate... certainly they are more rugged than standard.

Another question for anyone
Most of the turbo pistons are cast, I don't believe thermoflow
pistons will be forged. Only a very few subarus come out with forged
pistons from the factory. You are most likely to find them in a RS RA
spec, but again most of them are not forged.

Even in the new 205Kw twin turbo RSK B4 or GTB's? I am about to buy a
GTB block just for the forged pistons.

Another question for anyone
Yes, the 205kW (275hp) GT-B has "forged" pistons. As I said, they are
commonly referred to as "forged" but that is not quite accurate.
I will have to search for my source of data on this, so that I could use the
correct terminology... but it escapes me right now.

Another question for anyone
hepolite, does that ring a bell. A piston that is cast that has a
dense grain?
