Default Spark Plug Gap Size?

Um i read this a while back on a DSM forum.... when you turbo a car are you supposed to make the spark plug gap a little bit smaller, to intensify the spark? like my stock honda is 44, should i set it to 40? what do you people recommend

stock hondas should be around 44. but, if forced induction its better to run colder plugs (bkr7e) gap to 31.

the way I always did it was to keep it at the stock length. If it misfires, close it by 2s, till it no longer misfires.
