Default Ring gap for the Arias pistons (Hastings rings), for turbo appl.??

i have a set of new Arias 81mm pistons but i don't have a spec sheet to tell me what the piston ring gap should be set to for turbo. i called Arias today and the person i spoke to said they didn't have that info to give out, and they stated that Hastings made the rings for their Honda piston sets . so i figured i would just ask around to see who has used the Arias piston/Hastings ring combo, and what ring gap was used for turbo appl.

thanks in advance.

From the head of the import division i talked to over at Arias, he recommended .022".024" on the top ring and .018" on the bottom ring.
