Default Narrowed dana 60?

Hey guys. I'm building an 07 silverado rcsb. Today we're installing a 550 hp motor but we will be adding turbos later this year and looking for 1000hp. Obviously the 10 bolt isn't going to handle that kind of power so I want to install a Dana 60 that I have. My delimma is if I should narrow it or just run a big offset. I'll be running a 4 link also. Any of you done this before that could give me some advice?

I like the plans, and truck with meaty *** tires looks good, but not a fan of when so narrow looks like a single steam roller tire and makes truck have anaerix model stance from behind at the tree.

I would do a combination of slight bulge to fenders with a good tuck and narrow enough for decent contact patch and proper 4 link or better.

full float, weld axle tubes, trusses maybe?, and one of those big redneck diff covers with external cooler

but hey im might just be weird
