Update: Alright, I just tested it for an hour on test center. I reforged multiple hci 4 and hci 5 wood pieces using an oak kit. I then attempted to enhance with heartwood before imbuing. Every time I successfully hit the hci mod from heartwood there was no change for hci on the item. The item kept it's reforged hci 4 or 5. The only thing that increased was the resist, and the item kept it's original weight.
So much for enhancing to hci 10 pieces. I was able to enhance di onto the forged hci pieces though, but unfortunately it takes up 2 mod slots. So if you enhance before imbuing and hit di 10, and then imbue with those 2 mods + stam8/mana8/hpi5 OR stam8/mana8/lmc8 you'd end up with a piece of armor that is 393 total weight.
So you'd have to decide if the wasted 100+ weight in points is worth the trade off. Most people would say no I'm sure.
