Default anyone with experience with JE srp pistons in a civic EF?

i have not heard of any exp or stories about these pistons on an EF civic.
i was mostly curious with reliability of the piston.
i found a shop online that are selling them for about 400.00. (not sure if this is a good price for them either, sounds decent tho)
looking at these:
Honda Civic D16A6 Si, 75.25mm (.010) Bore, 8.5:1 CR, -6.8 CC Dish JE 149194
Honda Civic D16A6 Si, 75.50mm (.020) Bore, 8.5:1 CR, -6.8cc Dish JE 149195
Honda Civic D16A6 Si, 75mm (STD) Bore, 8.5:1 CR, -6.8cc Dish JE 149193


Honda Civic D16A6 Si, 75.25mm (.010) Bore, 9.5:1 CR. -2.9cc Dish JE 149191
Honda Civic D16A6 Si, 75.50mm (.020) Bore, 9.5:1 CR, -2.9cc Dish JE 149192
Honda Civic D16A6 Si, 75mm (STD) Bore, 9.5:1 CR. -2.9cc Dish JE 149190


questions:
are these any good?

should i just go with arias or cp instead?

will they work well with eagle rods or is there another rod that works better with them?

im boosted.
which one is better,

8.5 or 9.5 compression?
over bore or stay std?

srp is a more inexpensive version of the je shelf piston. i had srp's in my first setup. they arent bad. and worked well.

JE has good pistons, CP and Arias are also very good. I do not have any experiences with SRPĀ“s.

If you do not have a sleeved block, take the 8,5 copression and if the roundness of you cylinders allows it, stay at the std cylinder bore or take in the worst case the first oversice, that will help your cylinders to live longer....

i do plan to sleeve tho.
what would be the recommendation? im not sure what the smallest bore would be. are the bore size followed by the sleeve size or the other way around?
