Ring gap for low boost

I’ve been planning on going turbo for a little while but I had done my rings about a month ago and while gapping them I hadn’t really though about going turbo atp and only gapped my top rings to .17 and my second to .18 my only question is would I need to tear it back down to regap the rings or would I be good on 6-8 psi on a conservative tune?

Wouldn't worry about it for such low boost levels. Just send it.

81mm bore or smaller id say get it, but that might be a bit tight for 84mm and up though probably still doable
