The faster you power your legs down to the mat on the roll, the faster he'll come around. So as you get better build your speed. It's one of my favorite ways to take the back.

For Blue/Purple Belts (same rules apply to both) it states "No Cervical Locks without a choke" so of course the Twister using an S-Grip on the side of the head is illegal, but I wonder if you attempted the Defcon 4 Twister where you are positioning your arms into a figure-four position (like a Rear Naked Choke) if they would permit it, because Cervical Locks with the choke are permitted.
this ^^^
and get used to throwing the choke in during the roll. you'll find that often your opponent will be surprised and disoriented during the roll, which will expose his neck for a split second. you can wait until you have his back to start looking for the choke, or you can snatch it up during the transition (which is where you will have to catch anybody good, anyway).
Aw, man. Twisters are illegal in NAGA? Well, poo.

I saw that, Eric. I guess it's just illegal in the Gi.
