You will not need an aftermarket ECU to run an Electronic Boost Controller. The E boost 2 is quite popular and a good boost controller, however a little expensive for my liking when you compare them to the Blitz EBC's which i believe and have read to be much better in holding boost and many more features. If your only going to be running something like 13psi and want to go a bit of a cheaper boost controller but still very good, go the Greddy Profec B 2, very good boost controller and can be easily mounted compared to having an extra gauge being mounted somewhere.

Hope that helps ya mate. Do a bit of a search for EBC's as this topic has been covered quite a few times.

I have one in my wrx... does the job, doesn't spike, and is easy to use...... although the Greddy Profec E-01 in my line holds a completely flat boost curve. If I had to chose one or the other it would be the E-01 hands down.

Much the same in price $500-$600.

      Certainly. It is probably broken under the wire style clamp. At least that one is easier to get at than the front one.   Sounds like it isn't a major leak, I'd start with backing off the the water feed and return banjos into the turbos half a turn then tightening properly. Hardlines can still crack over time, either in the tube (particularly when turbos are changed if the banjo is siezed in the the tube) or at the brazed joins between the lines and the banjo fittings. A coolant system pressure test will reveal all. BTW you'd be able to get a sump without exchange, it will just cost more as they will have to source another stock one for the next customer. If you want to address the sump a much better option is something like this https://www.hioctanedirect.com/hi-octane-racing-sump-extension-nissan-rb26 that you weld in locally (and add the oil return fittings at the same time)

      Pretty sure you are thinking of the throwout bearing there (which you should change when you change your clutch), when they are worn they will get quieter if you put your foot on the clutch. An input shaft bearing is turning/noisy at all times.

      I’ll have more of a look into Recaros over the weekend. It’s taken me 2 days to figure out which Bride seats suit my application haha.

      I am aware of their presence, but the product page looked like that conversion will eliminate the AWD capability. Fact remains it's kind of a hassle to send my oil sump halfway around the world and buying an extra one is expensive and unnecessary. Before I go hat route I'd explore more local options.    Would you recommend I just pull the engine and renew as many things as possible since I'm already having problems with some leaks? Would have to get an engine crane first though.

      Are there any indicators that the vehicle is in limp mode?  Any dash light, or something.  Or is it just lack of acceleration?
