Default Ring Gap

I'm about to put my motor together, but i'm not sure what to gap my rings at. I have wiseco pro tru pistons and they call for .004 per square inch of cylinder. So that'd put me at .016. I plan on spraying a 150 shot everynow and then should i gap them anymore to cover for the nitrous?

.016 should be alright considering they will wear in a bit and you are only running a 150 shot. Did the pistons come with any paperwork on the ring gap? Some pistons such as KB134s need a wider gap.
