boreing is basically makeing the holes where the pistons go bigger - so the piston size will depend on how bad the bores are and how much is bored out
unless you are going for silly power; standard mahle pistons will be enough
edit to say: if its just a lip, you could probably get away with a hone - best off taking it to someone who knows what they are talking about IMO
