This is for good reason, the Hyperutectic pistons have additional silicone added to the casting resulting in a stronger but more brittle material, unlike the forging process that results in a stronger material while maintaining a good degree of ductility. These pistons must be installed with extremely close tolerances that most engine builders are reluctant to adhere to, any skirt contact (piston slap) with the bore will result in the piston breaking apart and the debris will be distributed throughout the engine, causing total engine failure. The same holds true if detonation, a lean condition or piston to valve contact occurs. This design of piston is unforgiving in these situations. Worst case scenario with a cast or forged piston such as the ones TA offers is a crack or a hole burned into the top of the piston, with very little or no foreign object damage to the rest of the engine.
