I think you're gonna need a LOT of rpm to get there, so I'd run the lightest rotating mass you can get away with.
Honestly, I know this goes against the typical suggestion, but if you're not gonna boost or use nitrous, I don't know that I'd used forged pistons for this application. I don't know that you need the extra strength you get from forging, and you would certainly benefit from the reduced mass that you would get from a hyperuetectic (sp?) piston. I'd definitely still do forged crank and rods, though.
