Default What rings for my setup?

Alright so I am looking for advice on which piston rings to get for my motor. It is a 370ci iron block, forged rods/pistons, around 9.7:1cr, and gonna see boost from A billet S480 turbo. I spoke to a Total Seal rep last month at SEMA, and he told me to go with a steel top ring, napier second ring, and standard tension oil ring. Called them up today and spoke to a different rep. Told him my setup and he gave me a part number for a steel top ring, conventional second ring, and standard tension oil ring (csh2010-35 was the p/n).

My question is, what should I go with (what are you running in your motor)? The car is primarily a street car but I want the rings to be able to hold a good amount of power.

Ring specs need to be 1.5 1.5 3.0 with a 4.030 bore.

I'm open to any suggestions or input

Steel top, napier 2nd, and standard oil ring. Total Seal, Hastings, Sealed Power, Childs & Albert all have this combination. IMO, I'd go with Total Seal.
