Burst bound & section sewn book, gutter in spine?

Hi,
Iam doing a 196pp Handbook and is to be "Burst Bound" and "Section Sewn". Do I need to include a double trim/gutter in the spine of the imposed pages as I would normally do for a "Perfect Bound" book to allow for the grinding/roughing of the pages prior to gluing. As I understand it when "burst Binding" the spines of the imposed pages are "perforated" allowing the glue to penetrate the pages and therefore is not ground at all, so just a normal spine is ok. But if the sections are getting sewn in does this make a difference?

Any Help and explaination would be much appreciated

Thanks

Simon
