ideally you match the bore size to an individual piston, i.e. measuring a specific piston and boring/honing the cylinder to that piston size, since they are all slightly different in size. you do this to get the piston to wall clearance perfect.
not the other way around, matching pistons to an already bored and honed block is not ideal at all. the P2W clearance will vary from what is reccomended.

if you're dropping cash on internals and want it to last, might as well go 82mm and get fresh bore/hone, that way they can bore your block to spec with the pistons in hand
