Default conrods? pistons? efi.....

Hi all, im currently building my engine and converting to efi. at the mo i have a stage 3 head, stage 2 t3, fmic etc.

firstly what would be the best uprated con rods to use? and also im not sure whether to go for just mahle .5 oversize or forged pistons? what does everyone think?

also i already have the complete efi inlet (injectors,loom etc.) and a xr3i loom but need the rest if anyone has any parts laying around? thanks.
