double the revs = quadruple the forces on rods and rod bolts.
930 rod bolts = same as Carreras (stretch easily if revved beyond 6000 RPM's frequently)

I believe that steel H-beam rods, lighter pistons and better rod bolts will get you far without need to delve into exotic (and very pricey) Titanium hardware. Of course, high revs are not usable if engine cannot breathe, so you might want to change camshaft to something that will keep breathing above 6000 RPM. Which brings you to another high-rev issue: valve springs and rockers.
