Turbo Upgrade- help? 3rd gen w/ 2nd gen swap/90hp nozz/fass fuel/monster intake&more

Recently swapped my early 04's blown engine for one from a salvaged truck with 125k. Added 90hp DDP nozzles, ARP head stud kit & a boost elbow. Truck already has a FASS fuel system, Banks Monster Ram intake & Max Tow guages(ext temp, trans, boost).

While swapping the turbo over noticed it has a 2nd gen turbo(cracked at that) & manifold so I'm on the hunt for the right turbo now.

Plans with it are daily 90% of the time and I also haul my horses(6-7k lb with trailer) a few times a month throughout spring -fall. I appreciate a good sounding turbo and all the power I can get. Not really planning on anything over 6-700hp wise as the end goal.

•What turbo would y'all suggest and why?
•It has/had a Bully Dog tuner that I personally hate so contemplating going back to Smarty or maybe try Edge, opinions?
•What else would you suggest to get while we have it in the shop? ?

Thanks ahead!

A taterbuilt stock appearing turbo should easily achieve your goals. I’d call them and describe your goal, buy what they recommend, and have Larson write a tune for it with HP Tuners. Forget edge, bully dog, banks, etc. Write a custom tune for your receipt. Sounds like solid 600hp platform.
Is the trans taken care of?
