Mechanically forged pistons do the same as regular cast pistons. However, forged pistons are stronger. They are good for high compression, boosted, or nitrous applications.

i don't have a problem with educated questions...... there's a world of google out there, finding simple information like this is easy.....

however, had he said something more like "what applications of forged pistons are available for a 4age, where could i get them, and what benefits might i see" then there can be an educated response.....
