Question Looking for reliable mods for hauling.

I am in the Hot Shot Business and I am looking for reliable mods that will help me out on this field. As of now I have the parts listed on my sig but I have to say that its not enough considering the loads I have to pull. I have also noticed that my turbo is on its last leg. The shaft on the impeller has to much play and its cutting a grove in the inner housing. With that being said I would like to upgrade my turbo but I am not sure on what size a 62/14 or a 64/14. I have a few parts that I am considering and if you all think I should go a different way on some of these parts please let me know. Thanks.
-Tunning=Smarty with MP-8
-Turbo= 64/14 or 62/14 not sure on brand
-ATS=manifold
-ATS converter 5 Star
-Gauges= Pyro,bst,trans, rear diff and common rail
-Rear diff cooler and trans as well
-FASS not sure on what type 150/150 or Airdog
-Injectors=F1 or DDP 50-90
-Tranny is on the works
-FS-2500

I use the TST for towing and couldn't be happier and have no problums pulling loads up to 43,000 75 mph.
The Smarty is great but not for towing, you have to watch your egts closely. Especially if you tow heavy.

Transmission mods will pay the most dividends for you IMO.

Get a trans built for towing by one of the reputable builders: Goerend, DTT, NADP, HTS. You will never regret it.

Do I need to upgrade my injectors or should I leave the stock ones on?

Just haul with it and on occasion hot rodding it. Mostly towing though. I know I need to upgrade my springs as well.
