what chip is good for towing a 16000lb trailer

I have an 05 1ton dually with mbrp 4 inch exhaust and an afe intake. needless to say towing my car trailer weighing in a little under 16000 lbs. my truck is a terd. I had an 05 single rear wheel LLY with edge attitude and my experience is the edge runs hot as hell. With so many different chips and programmers out there I do not know whats best for me. I live in Reno nevada and every where I go there are serious grades coming and going to the races. Any help would be much appreciated.

Best thing i think would be a predator programer Ver. 2.02 on a low setting the predator is good because it adds boost also instead of just fuel and timing, and another great function is its ability to turn off the egr valve. The good reason for turning the egr valve off is to keep it from putting heat back into the cooling system and intake air which in the end will make the truck run cooler and longer!!!! THe added boost also helps keep egts down and make the truck a little quicker out of the hole! The predator makes good power and has really good features all for less the 400 bucks, but if you want to tow with more than the 60 hp tune i recomend gauges just for peice of mind!!!!
