Another interesting point: if you run forged pistons, if you use nitrous, if you have upped the performance significantly.....you will actually want to INCREASE the gap in order to handle the increased heat/expansion without failure. My gaps are larger.
That's good to know wiseco will work with you. Yeah I knew that with performance builds you need to increase the gap, but the stock rings I used were within specification in the manual. Based on what DannoXYZ is saying though I was curious how one reduces gap.
