Default Newb question about the JDM B16

Does the JDM B16A3 have a forged crank? Would the stock one hold up well against 300-325whp from a turbo setup? I love you guys.

there is no jdm b16a3. the b16a3 was only found in the 94-95 delsol. it is the equivalent to the jdm b16a as far as parts go, but they are not the same (slightly).

as for the crank, i believe all hondas cranks are forged, i could be wrong though. and the motor can take 300whp from a turbo setup, if done right.

I have TT Rods, SRP Turbo Pistons, and ARP Headstuds. I'm trying to decide wheather or not I need to spend more $$$ on a crank. Because I wasn't sure if it was forged or not.
