I decided to replace all the rings with a new set from MAHLE (Part #41926CP, $69.79 for a full set from RockAuto.com- much less expensive than buying them in a VW-branded package).
Ok I had the my 06a block machined to 81.5 mm in order to take out some damage to 2 of the cylinders. Just got the block back and I'm getting everything ready for install but all my piston ring end gaps are big.
