Forged
No. I believe that BMW purposely placed this type of rods and internals to protect them from the damage that could be inflicted by owners to the rest of the drivetrain. This "fuse" type of weak link in the engine will give owners pause when trying to get optimum performance. GM now has forged internals in the supercharged and turbo'd motors and they have done well with owners that have a lead foot or are very young and don't care about the consequences.
