Up to a certain point, you are absolutely correct. I'm not aware of any forged baskets, but there are plenty of cast baskets. ANyway, at some point, aluminum baskets do have some serious advantages in heat dissappation and rigidity. I would certainly avoid a sub with Brahma like excursion claims that used a stamped steel basket.




Yeah, cast aluminum.

And Steeda, those W3's have stamped baskets.
