Meth injection only helps prevent detonation. Thus you can run higher boost levels. It will not eliminate the need for forged internals. Higher power output = bigger/more powerful combustion = the need for stronger internals.

Here's an example. If an engine is known to have weak ringlands higher octane gas will not help with that. That being said, there are a lot of motors that are known to have strong internals out of the factory i.e
2JZ-DET or the RB26DET.

For the most part, the answer is no. Unless you have a motor that is known to be bullet proof out of the factory.
