No company will NEVER EVER ask you to confirm your password with them. If any site asks you for your password, ignore it.

NZR IP address
But this is nothing special. The internet needs that address shown on the page, to know where to send the data back too.

Boost Jets Good..or Bad!
I agree, I had jets in for 18 months and never had any problem. Getting anything stuck in them is unlikely and would really have to happen to both sizes too. Not to mention get past the air filter. I must have been lucky with my boost controller. Installed it, did a few learning runs and now it holds boost perfectly on what ever I put the setting at. I have the 2 settings one on 18psi, the other 14 and off drops it to about 7psi, which after the rebuild feels like what it did on stock standard boost. However, the temptation is there to change it and increase the boost.

Boost Jets Good..or Bad!
But boost jets have no fiddle factor, it is a very hit and miss situation of what boost you get. Imagine if something gets stuck in the boost jet it will blow your turbos. Least when a EBC is setup it is constently adjusting and monitoring the boost.

NZR IP address
You can also use programs like http://www.yourfreedom.net which tunnels your internet via another server, so it will use their IP. Some ISP base IP addresses on MAC address, so plugging your cable modem in to another ethernet port can give you another IP address. Cable internet tend to keep the same IP address for months at a time. I am not sure about ADSL, if they are like the old dialup modem, it changes every time you dial up. Never had adsl so I dont know how it works. Why do you want to change you address? If you are worried about it, phone your ISP and ask them to change it because of reason x. I hope you have not been trying to hack some one. ;)

Boost leak test
Probably the crapy compressor. Its not a case of how long can it hold it for, but how much pressure. Dont do more that 5 PSI, and more than that and you will probably cause leaks. Dont forget that you are putting pressure on some things the wrong way. Personally I have put 5psi in it for 10 mins at a time, filling it up and the looking for the leak.

Sports Cats opinions
With de-cat? It is! Also, decatting will not make your turbos smoke. Turbos over time will leak and start to smoke. Decatting only speeds up the process.

oil pressure
not really. Unless it is pouring out. Why do you think you have low oil pressure? Are you using the car's oil pressure gauge? If so have you changed the oil pressure sender unit? These become very inaccurate over the years.

engine details
Really? What about oil feed lines? Where do they plumb in?
-
engine details
I dont know for sure but I would REALLY doubt that they are the same. Even though the engines had the same bore and stroke, that is where the simalarities would end. I doubt the mounting points for the air con, alternator etc would be the same, and the oil feed lines for the turbos would be the same.

VVT springs
yep I would leave them. You can get up rated ones but these are only for when you get uprated cams and valve springs.

VVT springs
VVT springs help against the cams vibrating.
