No turbo timers here, as you can easily stay out of boost with driving civilized when you are 10 minutes out from home. I don't think they are needed, but there are many schools of thoughts on the matter.

yeah, a few too many mods and the stock ECU doesn't cut it, and the OEM wastegate is tapped and you start to get bad boost spikes. as far as ECU's. . . there are a great many. if you are staying with the stock twins, a PFC is your entry plug and play ECU and will work. Then as you go up in the price range, you have more features available for tuning. Haltec PS series, Life Racing RX, MoTeC M600 (in order of price). Not enough space in one post to elaborate as to what and why, but it at least gives you info to start off on.

I'll be heading up from FL with a caravan of rotaries for DGRR. Just look for the Asian guy with red faded hair, and it'll be me. I've been for the past 4 years, easily hands down the best event stateside.
