Forged internals for 540 HP?
Do you guys think I need any sort of forged internals for 540 Flywheel HP? That is about 442.8 Rwhp.

If you were to get forged parts, it would be your rotating assembly (pistons, rods, camshaft), but you dont need them for this amount of power

Just as trivia 540 at the crank is more than 440 at the rear wheels. I think it should be more like 480 at the rear.

Yes and no, do you go to the track and thrash it? If so tick tick tick. If you just occasionally redline it with no real thrashing then just tick tick
