Seven owners over here have been using the Honda pistons for the last 20 years or so,and I believe they are as good or better than anything else available.Problem now is Honda have stopped manufacturing them in oversizes.
I know of one car,blown, that has been raced and hillclimbed certainly for 15 years.My own trials car we uprated it to blown and the engine had already been together 9 years on Honda pistons and ran well.
I wouldn't worry about the slightly lower comp running supercharged,old theory was it raised the effective comp by 2 ratios,ie 7 to 9:1.
Nice work on the car.
