Sniper unit is $999 and the power adder is $1195 you can snag a regulator with reference for less then $100, I’ve ran both and fitech customer service was enough for me to switch to a Holley and the handheld display is a way more user friendly.
Just throwing that out there I really enjoy your build thread definitely something different
^Have run both with boost? That is the hole catch to blow through if they can handle being pressurized and deliver more fuel at boost. I do not own either yet so I am open to the debate.
As far as I understand, the O2 sensors will pick up the fuel need. The tricky part is retarding the timing under boost. If the Sniper has an external MAP, it should be able to be tuned. You may want to contact Mark Remmel, cutlassefi on here, Classic Oldsmobile, and realoldspower.
I hate to say this, because it is totally in my nature to do the same, but you are over complicating this. If you are willing to spend ~$1500 on a bunch of hybridized systems to run this thing you are approaching it the wrong way. What I am getting at here is you should consider running one simple system that integrates only what you need to make this function.
Also, I know it may not seem like it... but you don't really need knock retard if you pay attention to the cylinder pressure, timing, and octane. While nice to have you don't require a rising rate fuel pressure regulator if your injectors and pump are large enough - I don't have anything but a set of 60lb/hr injectors, a high mileage stock fuel pump, and a Boost-A-Pump on my TBSS. The tune (both VE and MAF) compensates for the added airflow under boost and does not require pressure compensation.

He could run one of those TBI GM small cap dizzy and have the unit control his timing
As for the distributor. How do you find a small cap factory distributor for a buick 3.8? Never seen one. People use what I am going to use a MSD. I don't think they are making those any more either. Mike I agree with you. It has snowballed on me a little bit. The thing that I should have done was. Bought a complete 87 engine and harness, but at the time it was expensive. Now I have all this crap and have more money into it. I am new to the tuning stuff and have never built a turbo engine. So I am trying to make the turbo end and tuning end as easy as I can with some same gaurds. If you know of better options I am all ears. Please explain more. Maybe the next guy can get something out of it.
I feel the experiment should be a fun one. I'd look at something like this: https://www.holley.com/products/fue..._injection/qfi_4bbl_tbi_kits/parts/QFI-500BDM
I am not certain if you have an Odd or Even Fire V6 - because that system will not support Odd Fire.
