Need Turbo Help, Please!!!

I've searched all i can find, but I need some honest advice, My truck has all the mods listed in my sig and its time for a turbo upgrade. It's a DD and I pull work-stock class, so I was looking at the HTT HX35/40 hybrid stage 3. How ever I sometimes tow around 8000lbs on long trips at sea level. I'm worried about the egts. Anyone running similar setup? All advice is appreciated

I did the HTT stage IV mod to my H1C and with the fuel cranked up to the max with my current mods. I can still melt pistons if I hold the fun pedal down too long. And that is at 42 pounds of pulsating boost and running H2O/meth. There seems to be more to it than just another turbo. I have the boost pressure but apparently not the flow. That is why I am leaning towards a HX-40 with the four inch exhaust. Of course that means a new intercooler and the associated plumbing mods to accept the three inch compressor outlet. So in the mean time I have cut back on the fuel until that day comes.
