do i need to forge everything??

I am making a motor right now that will be later on the road s/c. Im going for 450 or so hp na and 600 forced inducted. Do i need to make everything forged. I am going to go arp bolts for the lower end. I just didnt know if i should run it all forged as in it being necessary.

I dont dog my car unless its saturday. I guess forged rods is a must. I think the eagle cranks are rated really high for nonforged items. I need help here. Also bearings and things like that.
