Default need new rings?

I just pull my B16A motor apart, do you think I should change the rings on it?

I am going to turbo the motor.

Thanks

you mean pulled it apart..as in took the pistons/rods out? or just pulled it out of the car? if you pull an engine apart and take the pistons out. NEVER use the old rings. and i never use the old gaskets either. look at the bearings and if there not scarred up or anything you can reuse them, but i recommend changing them.
