For the 1/4 mile or track?? All depends on how much you fancy firing through it, and what sort of set-up you go for.

Didn't the Gaz'd Corsa run a TB'd XE with around 100/150 shot of nitrous through it??

Gaz'd corsa ran 2 x totally separate 150bhp shots, so 300bhp in total hence the hassle they had lol,

Your xe would easily take 150shot, many people have run 100+shots on standard engines,
150bhp shots can smash standard pistons but irc you forged pistons and steel rods?
May just need some timing knocking out for when the gas is on, and rs turbo plugs, and jet it right.

Thats not really the main/best feature of a progressive controller though.

You can fire on a basic kit without a controller and get it to activate only at full throttle. Just have a micro-switch under the throttle pedal.
