Just to give you a heads up that 1.08 housing on that turbo with the 418 might be too small. I am running the same exact turbo setup on a 390 and at only 8 psi was seeing 15 psi of backpressure which was opening the wastegate early on me so I am stepping up to a bigger turbine housing. Just something to look at when you get her going.

Ya im building the car, and jose at forced inductions said this size housing wouldnt be an issue till over 1000whp, it sounds like u may have other issues causing too much backpressure cause on a 390 that housing is plenty big enough

Well I got an update for you man about the housing issue I posted a few weeks ago. The bigger housing did fix my backpressure issue and on 14 psi with the exhaust cutout open my car made 865 rwhp, pretty healthy if you ask me. Just something to look out for.
