Thought about sprayin a 100 shot on it, still a little worried about it even with forged internals. Not very familiar with nitrous and havent heard great things, this also being a daily driver too

Aluminum heads, huh? You go with the fwd set up? I'm interested in some pics. If you dont mind either where did you get the forged internals? Havent had much luck finding them for the 3.4, if you take any videos of the car let us know for sure.
