I have been using the mirror qin heavy raptor for a little while now, as I was sick of the totally paper thin hull of the Hegh'ta bop.
What I need help with is my build, I'd like to know what I can tweek here and there to give me the damage output that I see some people boast about and perhaps just a little survivability as well. I have listed it all below, and I could really use the help as to improving the build (until i finally get a fleet ship sometime)
All feedback and suggestions are appreciated

I like the build,its almost the same im using on my bortasqu.id recommend usig a torp spread instead of scatter volley.maybe try to get the plasmonic leach and advanced fleet weapons. Id also use transfer shield strenght 1and 2 on science.
Using 2 torpedos on front would be another option,a quantum and the omega plasma torp to get all the borg set abilities.you wont get further dps of the qin out of that good build you already have.
I'm not wild about your BOFF choices outside of tactical. If it were me, I'd pick:
Engineering:
EPtS I x2, Aux2SIF I
Science:
Polarize Hull I
Hazard Emitters II
You've got Tactical Team, Engineering Team and Science Team on the same boat, and they all lock each other out. In point of fact, you're best off running Tac Team with 2 purple Conn officers dropping the cooldown to 15 seconds. Tac Team plus EPtS will give you PLENTY of shielding. Since you're running a Regenerative Shield, I also recommend grabbing field generators instead of emitter arrays, raising your capacity will hugely improve your survivability. Finally, I'd drop the Ablative Hull Armor for another Neutronium, with Aux2SIF and Hazard Emitters and the improved hull healing from the Borg set, you're simply not worried about dying from Plasma burn. What you ARE worried about is being hit by a giant torp or warp core breach on a down shield, and a second neutronium console will go a long way toward letting you survive that.
