The TSW wheels are for sale. I currently have 360 Forged wheels on it. Yes they are just the NT05's not the drag radial and the car pretty much dead hooks on them. 275/30/19's in the front and 305/30/20's in the rear.

If it doesn't go pop! Us guys in the 600 rwhp club should never worry! I thought the higher power cars were adding pistons! Good luck! hope it holds up!

Still many things that can go wrong with our FI cars, which is why Torco or Meth is so important for maintaining high fuel quality and lowering the chance of detonation, as that's been the main killer of these engines.

How is the ride with that tire and wheel combo? Any rubbing with the lowering bolts? I'm looking to run a similar setup but concerned for a daily driver. Michelin PSS makes same size tire specs but the NT05's look nice and are more affordable. Thoughts?

Update:
I have been doing a lot of racing with the car. It loves the E85, meth and F1A. On 12lbs of boost the car put down 815/778 at 6k rpm's. I am going to add the LS7 lash cap to the fuel pump lobe lifter to try and help out with fueling. I am also going to add a boost a pump to the intank pump. All in all the car is running very well with no issues.
Things I have added:
-Pro Charger F1a
-Futral Motorsports high lift camshaft.
-Snow Performance Meth injection kit
-E85 tune
-Nitrous Outlet single nozzle wet kit (not used yet)
-18" rear c5 z06 wheels and 305/45/18 Nitto 555r's

Looking good, man!
Happened upon that YouTube video with the V6 Turbo Mustang... Talk about a weird car there.
Looks like you changed your tires out now to semi-slicks - I couldn't believe the amount of spin you got on that run.
Makes me very concerned with being able to keep power down to the ground on mine, since you know how to launch better than I do.

Hey buddy I have a couple questions, are you running the meth as added safety with the e85 or you tune for meth also?
How much more fueling were you able to get out of the cam & can you tell me more about your injectors?
Are you worried about the cam with a BAP driving your fuel pump over the limits?

Absolutely freaking love this car. Not a fan of the snow meth kits but the car is money as usual coming from you. Can't wait to check it out in person and get a run in.
