Need help on deciding which piston rings to use??

Heres the setup, I have a B16a2 block that has been sleeved, bored (81.5mm), and o-ringed by AEBS. I have Wiseco (9:1) pistons and Eagle rods. The piston rings that came with the piston set are alright, but when compared to the stock Honda piston rings the Honda ones are much stronger (especially on the second ring). I was looking at Total Seal but have not heard a lot about them. I read an article in Honda Tuning where Erick Aguilar used stock Honda rings because of the quality, my only problem is that I don't think Honda makes a ring for an 81.5mm bore. Boost wise I plan to run about 15 psi on regular pump gas, for street use, and at least 26-28 psi on the track with C16. Possibility for nitrous to be dumped in the engine also, for I already have a dry setup. PLEASE!! If anyone has any advice or has already had experience with this don't hesitate to let me know.

Thank you
Marcus

can you even run 15psi daily on pump gas...that seems like it's a bit high, but then the highest octane we get around here is 92.

You might be right I am not really sure I am sure I will find out though after I increase the boost in increments and watch for knock.
