honing and deglazing for turbo

I am planning on honing my block myself at home, i have 81mm wiseco pistons. Does anyone know the piston to wall gap for 400-500 hp?

i would go higher, .0045 - .005 maybe even a bit more depending on how you plan to make your 500whp.

forged pistons need room to grow.
