I would run higher compression or a bigger shot. High compression loves nitrous oxide. But as stated any good forged piston will serve you well, I prefer CP, JE, or Arias. A Swain coating or the like (Tbone does good coatings) would be nice on the piston top, and so would an anti friction skirt coating, but many engines have been run successfully for many miles and passes at the strip without fancy coatings.

nitrous does love higher compression...but it also takes more of
it to reap the benifits of it also.when you have forged parts it allows for-
giveness if the tune is not right and allows you to make it right.but
sometimes w/forged parts you don't get SECOND CHANCES either.
