I would go with ENDYN, CP or Wiseco (no particular order). ENDYN has been around for years and has done allot of research on Honda piston design. CP has allot of great people working for them and it shows in their work. Wiseco has been around for a while and make very good pistons. Here are my old 84mm B16a ENDYN pistons. I will only use ENDYN pistons but you can't go wrong with CP and Wiseco.

My Endyne "Rollerwave" spec Wiseco's have been through hell and back, and so far, everything is still perfect. 
It might be the ceramic coatings that are holding them together, though... <knocks on wood>

fyi, almost all 04 wisecos come with coated side skirts
ive talked to a few engine builders about their impression with cp's, they have great tolerances but not that much valve clearance and they can detonate easy
