Default towing turbo upgrade

hey guys I know this questions has been asked about a million times but I need help. I'm trying to figure out what turbo to run and I've been told about 5 different things and idont know what would work best for towing and dd with my mods. I've got #10 plate in a 215 pump. Stock injectors. 4k gsk, 60lb springs, afe stage 2, crazy karls dual inlet intake manifold, and I just got a steedspeed exhaust manifold with a t4 flange. And my truck is a 5 speed too. I tow heavy at times up to about 15k but usually around 5k. Just looking for a turbo that will keep everything cool and that won't break the bank. Any into is appreciated. Thanks

I'm thinking a single. But nothing gigantic. Still need the drivability to be good since it is my dd. And no I have a south bend clutch. Price wise I'd like to stay under $1000 but will scrape up more if need be.

its a decent little turbo, you arn going to make big power from it but more than stock, it freese up a few R's up top with the 65mm wheel. not a huge upgrade but an upgrade, they spool close to stock. i run it to about 35psi.

ya I'm not looking to make big power. Just god power for towing mainly. And being reliable is most important to me really. Could you send me some pics f the super b?

what about an hx40? I've heard good and bad but I think that goes with everything. Been told not a good idea to run one on a stick shift cuz the shaft is small compared to the wheel size and if you bark ittheres a pretty good chance that the shaft will break. But that's just here say idk.
