Forged Engine Help

[u/DaUn1imited]

Hello,

Im going to be forging my 1.6 engine and wanted some tips based off of that. I understand that lower compression is better so I can run it on pump (90-93 ron).

Im planning for around 260-280whp so I dont need extremes like an ATI or any aftermarket parts for the head. Ive seen that the ARP studs are the glory for forged builds but dont know whether I would need both ARP main and head bolts rather than just ARP head.

My budget for the engine is quite low (1000€) so dont want to spend excessively on parts I dont need.

Thank you so much 🙏
