Some winter projects!

so I did some things over the winter, installed supercharger, meth kit, boost/electric fuel pressure gauge, steam kit, license plate mod and installed a tow hook. I bolted it to the frame didn’t trust those inserts! I took out the restrictor plate and left the stock pulley. Next is getting it tuned.

looks good, did you upgrade the fuel system besides the meth kit?... do you already have headers and/or a cam?

As an aside, what style of splash guards are those?

have you driven it yet?... if you left the stock injectors alone you can drive it to make sure everything is good to go, just stay out of boost... if there are any belt issues, leaks, etc, it would be a good idea to catch them before you go to the tuner so you aren't wasting their time and potentially costing you more money
