The LQ9 rods are beefier than the LQ4's. The LQ4 has dished pistons and lower compression. It'll be better for a boosted application. Should be cheaper than a LQ9 as well.

the LQ9 with LQ4 pistons would be ideal for boost and if you went with a thicker head gasket then stock you would be around 9.1 CR which is pimp and have a stout bottom end
