Forged pistons are needed in these engines when adding turbos... The WRX/STI from about 2007 used hypereutectic pistons which tend to eat themselves.

Problem is you can't put boost on a stock boxter engine that it isn't meant to take it, after 2008 wrx and stis are known for spitting pistons, if you're gonna want a serious frs or gt86, swap out the engine for a built sti engine. That's my 2 cents
