You should be ok to run an MD321T, but you will not be able to push the turbo to its limit.

Ah, fair enough.
Your figures must be close to the limit!

Was the v7 JDM the first to get forged pistons? Am I correct in saying the UK/Euro didnt get them though?

There are a couple out there running in excess of 500bhp on standard internals, and we know there is more to come from mine as only running 1.5bar currently.
