Default n2O plate,NW102, tensioner issue.
With the plate on, the tb hits the factory ls3 tensioner (11 camaro). Does someone make a lower slung tensioner that wont contact? Lmk

Try Katech's billet tensioner.

How bad it hit? I grinded on the pulley of my car, took the ridge completely off.

I agree with the Katech tensioner. Much smaller pulley diameter and shorter belt to boot, which moves it a good deal away from the TB. It's a common problem with the FAST 102 on the LS3 in the 5th gen Camaro as well, and the Katech pulley cures it.
