Thank you! I have not had them on while the car is running. I got the rears rolled and grinded down the rear trailing arm a little bit so far. For the front I have some carbon fiber victory function +15mm fenders. And I know im going to have to do some trimming. Check out R/T Ernie's for sale thread for his nt03's and scroll through some of the comments. He answered some questions you might have. I will report on it when it's up and running with all the bugs fixed.

This is a beautiful build man. Can't wait to see her all done. What do you plan to do with all that power, other than kick some serious a$$?
Also, I noticed you have the Driveshaft Shop 900HP Complete Front Axles. Are you running ABS? Did you have any issues with the ABS ring on the axles?
Good stuff,

As others have pointed out, your choice of cams is interesting. I also think you choice of engine is a bit odd, considering your goals and turbo choice. I would think a 2.1 or 2.0 to be a better mate for your turbo choice. You've selected a turbo that requires either RPMs or larger displacement to make viable, and mated it to a bottom end that is the most limited as far as RPMs go and not large enough in displacement to make a difference. Your setup sounds badass if you were to consider a smaller turbo, but boring in the configuration that's being presented.
Sorry for not having a wholly supportive post. I know Internet criticism can be harsh/annoying. I just wanted to give you some food for thought.

2.2slr would be ideal. Extra displacement, but still good to rev to 9500. Its what English racing set the 1/2 mile record with.
