Default Started my custom rear mount

I finally pulled the trigger on putting a turbo on my trans am. Going with a GT45 turbo custom build rear mount. Of course upgrading fuel pump, injectors, scavenger oil pump for the return and so on. Looking to stay around 6 to 7 psi as well as using snows stage 2 method kit with 2 gallon reserve in the rear instead of a fmic. Cal Speed is doing the build as well as I'm swapping my A4 for a T56. I was one of the lucky few whos car came with the 2:70 gears(lol). My questions are, the gears I have + T56 + turbo, anybody use this setup for street? How do you like it? My car lives in the garage and I only drive it on my days off so I want something fun for when I'm not out in the oil fields. And with the meth kit, I plan on spraying towards the rear where the turbo is instead of sending lines towards the front of the engine. Does that sound like a idea or anybody use that setup and like it better. Parts are ordered and car goes in the shop Feb 21. Again I'm just trying to find the best setup for my car. Sorry if these topics have been brought up before, and thanks for reading.
