Looked in to the progressive control, definitely worth using. Was wondering whether it was any good, if not I was going to use aftermarket control.
Wasn't planning on using the XS Power turbo or wastegate, was thinking more along the lines of just getting the kit for the intercooler, manifold and some pipework, then selling the turbo and wastegate on.

I know RR figures are to be taken with a pinch of salt but the same rollers had cars pulling stock bhp too.
You would hope so but I think they just like talking rhubarb.
As for chopping a Civic manifold are the port spacings anywhere near the same as a TU engine? I've chopped and welded a 200SX manifold for my mates C20LET and had no problems. Guess you've just got watch for clearence issues really.
Good luck with the build- look forward to seeing a progress thread.

Sounds about right, a decent LET will push 280 all day long on Phase 2 chips with ease, intercooler, plugs etc.
As far as I can see the port spacings aren't too far out, will get proper measurements next time I'm at the scrappy
