Normally the firmware we have has 3 fuel pump outputs. The 370Z one doesn't, but Max @ VMR can request (at a cost) to have additional features written in. So yes, technically you could ditch the hobbs switch. Fuel/Oil pressure safeties are there.

My last event I lifted the heads slightly again. What is your take on this?

What's the difference in the ign timing being run on the engines? If all the engines are being punished with the same power level, what are the other variables? What kind of exhaust pressures are being seen? I recall with using ECUTek with their updated ign timing logic so you didn't have to depend on the calculated ign timing, but how do I prove it's accurate and consistent? It doesn't take much at higher power levels to punch a hole in a gasket.

You mean turbo speed sensors? Informational and fun to have, but not critical. Or boost pressure sensors? The speed sensors would provide more value on a common intake plenum.

I would need to add, Fuel pressure, IAT sensors (where do I mount them at), oil pressure. What else would you recommend?

I stuck my IAT sensors into the charge pipes before the throttles. We welded bungs on. Exhaust pressure sensors are also nice to have, but not necessary.
