wanted to know if im risking the standard internals with the current setup.
i read it's better to switch pistons+rods at around 320-350hp

If you're intending to run that power, you could probably get away with standard rods and pistons, but how long it lasts is anyone guess. It would be best to go forged if you want to run that power or more.
