The 3071 puts you right on the borderline for forged internals. Conventional 
wisdom, according to the CO Mafia, has a crank horsepower limit of 420hp for 
stock internals. The 3071 can go to 500hp+/-. I'd want to be running some sort 
of boost control to keep things under control. So, definitely go with the 
lower compression and the ARP studs. At that mileage, I'd also replace all the 
bearings. Another suggestion would be to go with 440cc injectors so you can get 
my SW when and if the RS2 won't work for you ;-)

There was a time when I stretched the stock studs on my car.
