Good towing plate,and more

My #6 plate is ok for around town, but somehow lacks in the towing department. I find myself having to get out of it because of EGTs at highish (>2500) rpm. Is there another plate that gives more grunt down low? Also, thinking of going to 370s, and a 16cm exhaust housing at a later date. Do the 370s really smoke that much? I don't know what I have for a muffler (cats out of the yard) but I do know it's not stock. A new system is around the corner for me before anything. One more thing, does TST still trade plates for a nominal fee (50 clams)? Any input is appreciated. Thanks
Dan
