Default Oil squirters required for cast pistons?

Hey guys, building an LSVTEC with a b18b bottom end with of course no oil squirters. I read that if using forged pistons, the cooling from oil squirters is unnecessary, but what if I'm using oversized cast pistons from Honda and it will be most likely seeing 9000RPM and sitting at high RPMS frequently. Will I be seeing any issues?


Thanks

Would a set of forged pistons be a better idea?
