I have started repairing them but left it for more important things...
Rather than clutter your post, this is the link to my build - https://www.sau.com.au/forums/forum/190-members-cars-project-overhauls-restorations/.
One day I'll go back and replace the photos Photobucket deleted...
In terms of base maps, Haltech ones are the best by far.
The ignition table for VCT motors are nearly the same as the OEM one (vacuum area -> atmospheric).
Provided the AFRs are safe and fuelling is good, I would not hesitate taking the base map onto a track with a near stock turbo.
Disclaimer: I pretend to know what I'm doing, and have only blown up two of my own motors and noone else's motor I've tuned in the past.
My manifold is ceramic coated by them, can't say my engine bay is any cooler.
If the manifold ever comes off, I'll go down the real thermo shield/wrap thing.
