See:
http://www.rotaxking.com/wst_page9.php
for one version; not sure if hits is the version that was offered a few 
years back.

I can't see the benefit of the above forged alternative as piston strength 
is not an issue with the 912 and the standard cast pistons likely have a 
much higher silicon content, which would make them far more seize-resistant.
