Default Exchange Super B Special for.....?

I recently bought a Super B Special Turbo and have been looking at reviews and have noticed quite a bit of negative feedback. Just would like to see what you guys would suggest. I have a 99 Cummins, I Rarely tow, I run it hard and race around town, and would like to hit the strip every now and then. Below is what has been done to the truck. I'de like to have a 14mm exhaust housing to keep temps down.

What are your guys takes as far as Brands and Sizes.
Thanks for the advice.

Super B special is a good charger. what negative things did you read? I've never heard of one failing, but that doesn't mean it's never happened...

I've just been reading that there's bad spooling lag. I already have it sitting in my garage.
Just wanted to see what you guys had to say about it so I can exchange before it gets installed.

Well it definatly won't spool like an hx35... whats the stall of your converter? I'd run it if I were you, takes a little bit to get adjusted to a big single but once you learn how to pedal it you can accelerate hard and make minimal smoke and they're alot of fun.
