Default ebay turbo manifold suggestions? Budget build

Don't judge lol this is a budget build! I did a 85 with the kit listed below and it worked great! however the turbo stuck out of the hood
I did do a search and only came up with someone else asking about them and recommending a guys name, Rob I believe. Any pics or info would be great! This might be my best budget build to date. I will make a thread pic heavy on this one when we get some parts in. Along with dyno results and total hp and 1/4 et's shooting for 9's happy with deep 10's no bs.
car rundown
paid $4,800
383
11.2-1 compression '
genx185 heads
aggressive street cam
zf black tag 6 speed
spec stage 4 clutch $500 purchased the car with a bad clutch
Full 3" stainless exhaust lt headers
dana 44hd 4:10 gears
383 scat forged assembly 5.7 rods -11cc pistons
car runs 11's on motor only
est hp 500 plus crank on motor
Plans
cage
turbo
and see what breaks
this is the kit proven to fit on standard sbc heads. I did have to modify the waste gate tube for clearance issues.
Thanks in advance for any help.

How much psi can you run with 11.2:1? Meth injection?

cometic .050 to 0.080 copper head gasket to get that to a more manageable cr
shooting for 9.5-1 to 10.0-1 I wont know until I pull the heads and check piston to block measurement. They sell gaskets up to .120 thick. If I have to go over 0.080 though I am going to source some better heads. I doubt it will be an issue though.
