dont go over 500 ish hp or you will crack the rear plate. ask Jrat 
. other wise you pretty much got it down. i would go with bigger primaries as well. in the 700 range and the 1600's are over kill but in a good way thats what i run with a TO4R 67. if you are looking for longevity you might want to look into some water or alky/meth injection as i am thoroughly convinced that is the main reason Jrats motor survived as long as it did.

yeah i do from azrx7.com i dont remember what his setup was though. um as to front mount size. well bigger is always better BUT you start getting diminishing returns pretty fast. i have a T04R and im running the small NPR one just because the fitment is amazing and it should be enough. but i also plan on running meth later on once i free up 400 dollars for a kit.

ahh the NPR IC is an amazing thing. NPR refers to the truck they come off of. the Isuzu NPR, a diesel turbo box truck. they come in 2 sizes big and small. the small one being the one i use as it fits perfectly.
any way meth/alky/water are all for increasing the effective octane of the intake charge. the added benefit of meth/alky is that you can replace some of your fuel with it. but at the same time if you dont get the injection right when you need it bad things happen. with water all you need to do is add it to the intake charge. also they all lower the intake air temp dramatically. there are some huge threads about those that have much more information then i would want to put in one post.

Tires/wheels,

Exhaust + Intake,
Think you're pretty good! Should be a nice setup.
