Forged nitrous specific piston + rings + proper ring gap, flat top.
No reason to get a dished piston unless you are running boost.
If you get a domed piston be ready to run something higher than 93.
Flat top is a good median of pump gas, but not sacrificing compression for no reason.

if you're considering a 300 shot.... that cam is gonna have to be pretty big duration wise. i cant see your sig, and dont know your goals for the car. depends on your combustion chamber cc's. im running about 12.5 static with 65cc chambers and had to run a domed piston. but the overlap of my cam allowed for that on 91 octane. im running custom JEs by the way, if i ever swap to a single plane intake this motors getting whacked with 300 as well

Get yourself a set of ROSS or CP's made, set up for heavy nitrous, and never look back. Of course you have to do everthing else too. If we can help let us know, I'd be glad to point you in the right direction.
