Default What Forged Internals should I get

Hello, this is my first post btw, so I was wondering what Forged Internals do I need to get my rev-up VQ to 600hp, I already know I need Pistons and Rods. I'm gonna buy a Vortech this weekend and next month I want to put in the Forged internals. I also want to know what compression ratio to run as well as if I need anything else to make the build more reliable.
Thanks in advance for the advice.

we know it's your first post...and not because theres a number right below your screen names that shouts '1'...

The 350z engine is rather expensive to reliable modify for FI...of the three engines the rev-up is the worst - minimal replacement part, problematic exhaust cam timing hardware, limitations of a single throttle body and an inefficient plenum air box.

Read-up on what other vortech users have done to get 600whp...prepare to spend money - 600whp will cost you $25,000. Good luck!

Look at Colombo's build.

Also what is the goal, bragging rights in a parking lot, freeway ricing, drag , drift, or roadcourse. Different builds take different parts

The goal is a drift car. Also would you guys recommend I get an HR 350z and supercharge that instead.

Also, it's a little more involved than just swapping out rods and pistons. Your best bet is to buy a built short block.
