Default best size inj for hx35 for power

what would be the best inj for power on a 6spd h.o truck and stock hx35? i plan on going bigger turbo, head studs and better clutch later on. i would do it all right now but my streetbike i race spun a bearing and i need to fix that first. i was thinking of 150's but might be too smokey. would i see more power out of the 150's or 100's with a stock turbo? i just ordered a new edge comp with hot unlock. the truck has a valair single disc in it right now.

the truck will also be pulling my 7x16 enclosed trailer with my bike, quad and gear or a 20ft open bow boat

Get the 150's, if you get the 100's youll just wish you got the 150's anyways. Egts should be easily managable too. Just kick it out of overdrive, you dont need to go 80 anyways. Stress on the tranny but hey your upgrading it anyway. Also If your Upgrading your Turbo 150s will be that much better. Im not a certified Diesel Mechanic so dont "Shun" me for what im saying .. just trying to providesome insight,

oh. i have to rebuild my boat too. i blew it up at the end of the year. so the truck wont get the other stuff until i get my bike and boat fixed. haha . so there will be a noticable power difference with the 150's over the 100's with the stock turbo?

your not going to overfuel if you properly tune... but yeah the one 150s can and will push a stock hx35 to the limit if you want them to. Lol you just have bad luck. i dropped a brand new crate motor in my four winns and didnt winterize it right, water got in expanded and cracked. Sucks man. there goes 6k.

yea i bought the boat and first time i took it buried the temp gauge past 270 before i was 100yrds off the dock and had to get towed back. found out the impellar was destroyed and changed it. i took it out and water was getting in the oil so i figured it warped a head or blew a head gasket so i changed them and the the machine shop foung a crack in them. i got new heads and it was was still getting in the oil. i changed them 2 more times because i thought they didnt seal because the head bolts were acting goofy and would click the tourque and kept tighting(junk felpro head bolts from autozone). so after i changed them a total of 3 times i found a crack in the valley 10inches long. good thing its just a chevy 350.

so there wouldnt be a power difference felt with between the 100's and 150's? i know they will be a little smokey and there isnt any big hills around here.
