Spend £300 on a set of cast omegas, and be confident they will take what you throw at them (all things properly set up that is)

assuming 1293 that is.

Correctly set up these pistons are plenty good enough, Robert uses cast omegas at 230-240hp

When I bought a set years ago they told me they wouldn't recommend running more than 14psi on them. I've been running a minimum of 15psi ever since ........ *happy*

I have run mine upto 19psi so far, and I plan to run 23/24psi, fueling/timing must be spot on though.
