Default Piston Ring Gap

On a 3.905" bore what would you recommend the rings be gaped at for a little N2O? Diamond pistons with their Pro-select rings.

Usually Diamond supplies a chart with their rings. If ya didn't get one I would try giving them a call.

Diamond recommended a .029 Top and .032 2nd ring. Sounded a bit much to me.
