Default Next step for my buddies truck?

Well, my buddy called me last night and wanted to know what to do next to his truck, and I think I have a pretty good idea, but more of you guys know CR motors than I do. He's got an 05 3500 4x4 QC Auto, with a built trans, and a Bully Dog Triple Dog with the Crazy Larry tune. I'm thinking he's gonna need a 62/14 Turbo at least, plus possibly an Airdog. He wants a bigger set of sticks, but then I'm thinking he might blow a head gasket.

So, comment on the list, add to it, replace things on it, whatever. He's already killing Mustangs and pretty much every other truck we have out here, but he wants more...
Airdog
HTT 62/14 (maybe 64/14)
F1 Flux 2's?

going to be draining rail pressure with those sticks and a stock cp3 so at minimum a modded pump is needed. in addition to the other stuff. his HG should be fine as long as he keeps his egts in check and boost below 50ish.

Dual feed line for rail pressure, and 90 sticks. a 62 turbo, and studs....he should then think about an upgraded CP3, like an Arson kit.

Well, I'm thinking Flux 2's might be too big, but I'm not sure. He said his truck barely smokes at all right now, and that doesn't sound right. I'm wondering if his wastegate is still open (in other words not plugged or disabled).

So the turbo and Airdog sound like proper upgrades?
