Well how could I get the best power out of my stock turbo. Could I add more boost and how and how could I get the turbo to spool faster and louder got a intake already bigger down pipe and straight pipe what else should I do

Now to answer your question. If you want to bring the boost faster, you can put a smaller housing on your turbo like a 1.0 housing. Your OBS truck's limiting factor is fuel. Your fuel injectors are small and therefore if you want power, you need to upgrade your injectors.
You already have intake and exhaust which is good. Next step is gauges to keep an eye on temps. Then stage 1 injectors and a chip are good for about 350 hp and don't require anything else to run them. That would be a good set up right there for a daily driver. If you have more cash and want more than that...You can get stage 2 or Hybrids and a chip...In this case you also need intercooler, Electric fuel, turbo, trans mods, HPOP, pushrods, springs studs...

No your turbo doesn't have a silencer ring. That is a Dodge thing.
What are you trying to do with the truck that you feel your stock turbo isn't capable of? The stock turbo is plenty fine with your stock injectors. If you want to bring the boost faster, get a 1.0 housing. If you want more air, get a D66. If you want more smoke, you need more fuel and a chip.
