from what i was lead to believe ,the forged moters will start burning oil earlier ,looser claerances ....more dependant on the rings ,but the rings stay seated longer cause the bore quality lasts longer
the hyper motors won't hold there bore quality as well ,the tighter clearances wear the bores shape and hone faster causing the rings to loose there seating eventually
i could be wrong ,i don't have a massive amount of experence with both moters .......,maybe some body else with more experience running both moters can chime in and correct me if i'm wrong
Sounds kinda funny, tighter clearances wearing it out faster, but I dont know for sure, Im no expert eithier. Does anyone have a high -mileage hyper piston motor using oil?

The hypo pistons havn't affected my performance at all.
