Is the top ring on all factory pistons the same,so I could fit turbo pistons and rods into a n/a mg block without worrying about slight wear in the bores*crying*

I'm very sure - looking at a turbo piston - that the ring lands are lower on the 'turbo' piston than the nat-asp one. Hence, the bottom oiller ring will be the problem one...
