Not a lot. Only needed when running bigger power than you'll be with the turbo/map.

Yeah, see what sort of power your running then, if you want more you'll need another map when you start fitting bigger injectors etc anyway. It's a lot of hastle fitting one if not required.

tbh thats not very good advice, to get the best out of it it and make sure it runs safe it will need mapping, if your chucking a vf28 at it then def yes get a front mount fitted and the turbo.

i'm guessing its a uk turbo, so best bet would be full decat, front mount, turbo, fuel pump, induction kit and then a map.

the 440 injectors will be fine at that power, wont need a FPR so should be fairly simple swap and map. also the standard my00 ecu is mapable

Why induction kit? The standard box is proven to be as good, if not better.
The op said vf28 and map, why add £300+ for a fmic at this level?(280bhp ish)
