really depends on your power goal.
I personally run 6x.013s with 357 over 475 compounds and daily drive it.
it does haze and puffs a little smoke if you don't baby the throttle, but it is very snappy and responsive. egt's stay well under control.
for a rig that tows twins wiht some 7x.012s should be quite a bit cleaner at idle and under acceleration and be very powerful
definitely hit up jacob for your turbo's
he's a great guy to deal with!
I bought my turbos, twin plumbing, intercooler boots, some of my gauges, boost bolt, clutch, etc from jacob
injectors from weston, fuel module from jamie.

I would/will go for a 57/65/12 over a S400 or a Htb3.So it spins up fast.
As the 57/65/14(SuperB) I have now spins up 400rpm later than the hx35(56/65/12?)which I think is significant with the 6speed I also have in my truck.
With the hx I had 15psi at 1000rpm, with the SuperB I have 5-6psi at 1000rpm.
Hx(32psi) fully spooled at 12-1300rpm, superB(45psi)at 16-1700rpm, so I think the smaller exhaust housing and compound will be best.
