hello,
A CDB is considered to be the strongest of Subaru engine blocks, the reason for this is that there is very little room for movement in the cylinders.
This link explains it far better than I can, plus it show pictures so you can actually see the difference.
Subaru Block
Forged steel parts are stronger than the cast internal parts in the EJ blocks. Again these are for high bhp outputs i.e. anything over 350bhp on a WRX
Hope this helps a bit
