Well Piper had seen Jason in action during their quest and spent about 6 months with him during that time, so she knows exactly what he can do. She only just met Percy and stories tend to be exaggerated. For example, when Percy saw Theseus, he was expecting some big strong warrior based on the stories he heard, but when he saw his spirit, it was that of a young teenage boy.
