Default Running a safe turbo

Alright I just got a rev hard 2C with all neccasary piping and all. Now I want to get the goodies on top of it to run it safely and more efficent. I am going safc, fuel pressure regulator, and some gauges. Later on I will be putting in turbo timers and boost contollers. Just want enough stuff right now to run it safely. Now I want some of your guys's input on what else I can get to make my turbo the cleanest running. Thanks

I would not get a boost controller. It can be the death of your engine, because you going to want to boost past what your suppose to. I would up grade the wastegate to a tail35mm. Bigger injectors and you should be fine. Just don't abuse it.

in other words, you're worried about my self funded car beating your... well i use that term lightly... car?

A Turbo timer is a must.
It's all in the tuning paul... spend about a good 1 or 2 hours on a dyno, and your car will run great. Maybe we should dyno ours together... a little group dyno thing
