Forged pistons and rods

Original Poster

I'm thinking of buying a 160hp Scirocco, automatic, around 200 thousand km, but apparently it has a piston melting issue. I'm thinking of buying the 160hp one and then fitting forged pistons, forged rods, a slightly bigger turbo, coils, injectors, etc. After fitting forged pistons and rods, would I still get the piston melting issue or any other problem

If someone more knowledgeable comments they'll probably correct me, but as far as I know the CTH got 6-7 piston updates. If you're not going for a very big setup, getting Nural-style pistons will minimize the chance of having problems. May God grant you the best.
