Depends on where he is towing, but if its anywhere near high altitude, I'd go for an adjustable box unless he wants a bigger turbo and exhaust. In the higher altitude, you can't turn injectors down. So you end up with extreme EGT's and nothing to do about it. We ran across this problem a while back. A guy had some bigger injectors and stock turbo w/ straight pipe. He could just barely make the high passes because of EGT's.

go with a box first
something that does timing and fueling is best (timing helps with egt's)
that most likely will be all he needs
then if you got loot go edm's for a little cooler egt's and more power to boot
if hes worried about detection from a dealer, I would stick to a plug in type box (not a downloader)
they have to dig a little deeper to find evidence of a box
the downloaders leave a time stamp
Im happy with my tst, from what Ive read, a ramifier would be my next choice.
