The hypers are done by Silvolite. Don't know about the forged ones. Good question.

The one set that I looked at were very poorly finished. Lots of sharp edges, just "cheap" looking. Might not hurt thier performance but they looked like you would have to spend an hour prepping them :(

That too bad Bill :( when was the last time you saw a set? I had a problem with the 6" rod hyper pistons and was wondering about the forged.
