DP Engineering have a pretty awesome reputation for Honda Turbo Kits as well as for the TU Engines in the Pugs and Citroens :)

Superchargerwise, I'd trust either RSTuning or TTS with the development.
My Brother's mate was the development car for the Swift Sport Rotrex Kit with TTS.

Because of the extra torque and same rev range I would probably also considering in replacing the tyres by 205/45 R17 (same as diameter as Twingo R2),

*COUGH* Hate to piss in your pot, but where did you hear the R2 Running 17s?
Every single one I've seen on stage runs 16 :?:

Same as (overall!) diameter as Twingo R2: 195/50 R16 = 60,1 cm (standard Twingo RS is 195/45 R16 = 58,1 cm or 195/40 R17 = 58,7 cm). Yes 205/45 R17 is bigger at 61,6 cm and 195/45 R17 would be better at 60,7 but are very rare.

Somehow I prefer the standard norm of writing sizes better in Rallycross: width, diameter, width, rim diameter: that's all! Like 205/620-17 for a Rallycross Clio Super 1600!

Although it would be much easier if the norm for road cars would be: width (in inches), overall diameter (in centimeters), rim diameter (in inches)! Like 7/590 R17 or 7x17/590 for our Twingo RS. This would be handy, especially for AWD cars running different width on the front and rear axle. And it also stops people from putting 205/40 tyres on a 9 inch rim (Germans...)!

Yep, they are all running 16s as most rally cars of that size do. 17s would be too much for bad roads! Also the specs say they are using 195/45/16 tyres, not 205/45/17 ;) Going off-topic though.

This one says 195/50 R16: https://www.setpromotion.com/trade/index.php?c=renaultsport

But indeed we are going off-topic... What was the topic again? Ah right: Supercharger!
 
Back on-topic:
For those seeking lower compression pistons: Wiseco like Wossner has 12.7:1 pistons for K4M N/A aspirations but Wiseco delivers custom pistons as well, so if you are looking into a different compression ratio...
 
i've got the british contact for them somewhere in my inbox. where looking to make tce 1.2 pistons as their now hitting 130bhp and over and thats one of the week links along with clutch.
