Alright so after getting all my boost leaks fixed, I was finally able to install the ARP studs, and remove the Smarty tune. I’ll be installing the Adrenaline this week, as well as a set of Infinite Performance 7x.010’s. The goal was to have a reliable tow rig at around 325-350 HP, but a forum member lives down the road from me and is offering a really good deal on a 62/68/12 SXE. So I’m considering doing that and making my hp goal 400hp. Will this tuner/injector/turbo combo give a good reliable towing experience? Is that turbo gonna be slightly too big? Should I wait and get a 57/65/12? Don’t want a lot of smoke, don’t want 600hp…just a solid reliable 350-400hp for dd and towing. 

You should be very happy with that setup. My hybrid spools quick and tows great no regrets.    Your SXE should outperform mine.  A good tune will make it a beast.

A 57 would be better, but I wouldn't be having buyers remorse

I recently swapped out a Fleece Cheetah 63/65 for a smaller ATS Aurora 3K - 58/72/12. Throttle response is great. Spools so quickly, The fleece was a bit of a laggy pig. Really happy with this turbo for towing the WA mountain passes near me.  I'm also about to upgrade some DDP 50hp injectors to DAP 100hp/7x.009. Looking forward to how this will perform. 

Personally too many upgrade turbos too soon and/or too big of a turbo. Just consider myself running 150 HP injectors on a stock HX35W which is 54/60/12. I can see how 58/72/12 would spool fast being the turbine is larger and gives the leverage to spool that small 58 compressor.
