Suggestions on pickups for my PRS CU?

I'm going to the US this summer and because of the ridciously low prices on gear you guys have I want to make sure I utilize that.

I want to change the bridge pickup in my PRS Cu 22 artist and maybe also switch the neck pickup.

Problem:
It sounds a bit nasal and thin.

I want a pickup that:
- Provides a fat and heavy distortion for metal.
- You have to hear all the tones when taking other chords than power chords.
- It has to be good for lead tones
- It's also good if it's useable for a decent clean tone so I don't need to switch.

Neck pickup:
Haven't really used it that much. Not sure if I need to change it, I just want to buy a pickup cheap when I have the opportunity.

I have a PRS Custom 22 artist. I also have a Gibson LP Studio and on that one I changed the bridge pickup to Dimebucker. I'm pretty sure the old bridge pickup was

498T Alnico magnet humbucker
What do you guys think about trying this one in my PRS? Would it be hotter and have more gain that the dragons 2?
