Another turbo question-KSB or?

Went to a wrench day and found a good combo for my truck. It's the same combo DHatfield is running as far as size of box/turbo/injectors.

He is running an 01 HO with 6 speed, Edge Drag, KSB-1, DD Supermentals and a SBC Con OFE.

Now, I only have a box. How big of a turbo upgrade could I do with stock injectors, or how big of injectors could I do without turbo upgrade. Or are they hand in hand, turbo AND injectors. I think I will just skip the hybrid 40/35 combo since it is not doing too well at 6000 feet (firsthand experience from other member).

What would my FMS and a turbo do to my truck, just make it a dog since the fuel is there but not being atomized like it should? I know, I should just get a huge turbo and huge injectors all at once but I can't!
