I used the calculator at http://changingears.com, which told me that the max trailer weight should be around 8600. Adding in safety margins of 10% that would put me around 7740 max trailer weight.
I've also seen plenty of people that towed more weight, but I plan on being safe and staying within my limits so I don't want to just overload it because I can.
Lots of great TTs for you to choose from! Have fun!
