I feel like you should crank those springs up a bunch moar. Usually end up around halfway up the shock for decent tire clearance. Also, I'd go with a 1 inch rake front to rear for dem wheelies.

Good plan. I just tighted em to hold pressure against the spring to throw em in. Prob easier to crank em up now than on the car.

1" in front that rear? Do the StanceLords allow that ?

Bro- if you crank up the front, it'll look so BA. People will think you're always set on kill and just letting it eat at all times

Front at 26.5" and rear at 27.5", that kinda rake. Your numbers will vary. Ground to bottom of fender/quarter should be good enough in my opinion.

What can i do about the extra plugs i wont be using? So far both Primary o2 sensors, the AC clutch and the 2 for evap or whatever by the coils. Rather not have them flopping around. Cut and tape? or just leave em and try to tuck em somewere

Depin with a paperclip, shrink wrap the leads and bury in loom.

Label optional, pending how you feel about future you.

All of this but make sure you label them. Future you will appreciate this.

If you live to be as old as Bonzo you might want AC back

There are many other things on the build that render AC non returnable.

Not sure if O2 sensors will be needed for the turbo?

Have you ever seen the FAST class run at Englishtown? They run like that all the way through the 1/4.
