What swap are you doing and what pistons are you using? If you buy aftermarket pistons then they will come with the correct rings to use with them. If you are using stock pistons then I would use the stock rings.

Look here (http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/acura/jsp/mws/prddisplay.jsp?inputstate=5&catcgry1=TSX&catcgry2=2004&catcgry3=4DR+TSX&catcgry4=KA6MT&catcgry5=CRANKSHAFT-PISTON&ListAll=All&vinsrch=no&systemcomp=Engine&vinnoT=&trim=&trans=&view=normal)

According to that it should be either 13011-RBB-004 or 13011-RBB-006 and I don't really believe there is much of a difference.
