SX/SXi/SXi Pro What pistons to use on 95 750SXi with few mods?

I am trying to get a list together so I can start my build but I am trying to decide what pistons I am going to go with. I have always used Weisco on my 4-strokes and my CR250R 2-stroke and never had any issues. I believe I used Pro-X on my 96 Seadoo SPI years ago but I think that was due to the price of the Weisco kit. I am defiantly going to have to bore my cylinders because of a few deep scratches but I am not 100% sure how far I am going to have to go. I do know that they are stock bore right now though so I can afford to go a few sizes up. I am not racing or anything like that... just rec riding. Here is my current setup... if it matters:
-The ski is equipped with a R&D head (6 is stamped in the head) BUT there are a couple deep pits in the rear dome do to the previous piston failure. I am not sure if I will be able to use it or not but I do have the stock head I can use. I tried to contact R&D but have yet to hear back.
-Factory Pipe (carbs jetted to Factory Pipe specs)
-K&N Flame Arrestors
-Injection Block-Off Kit
-Choke Valves Removed (Primer Kit)
Thanks for any assistance.

Go with Pro-X. they are a great piston. ( same as OE actually)

Wiseco's a strong, light, and a very good piston also, BUT because they are a forged piston, instead of cast, you MUST run them at a greater piston to cyl clearance, and there for you should rebuild more often. ( less hours on motor)

just my opinion...

i can fix you up, with either, if you need.
 
OK, so I was inspecting my cylinder a little closer this weekend and noticed a pretty big issue... The rear cylinder sleeve is cracked at the bottom. I am assuming this happened when the piston came apart. Now I have to decide whether to try and find another cylinder on EBAY, do the cylinder exchange from SBT, re-sleeve the cylinder, etc. Any suggestions?
