I've posted on your previous thread regarding your Total so I know where you're coming from.
There is no single supplement that's specfically designed for powerlifting vs bodybuilding.
Edit:
At your age I won't recommend anything besides whey protein, creatine, and some fish oil. That'd benefit you more than what you're currently taking. I buy whatever protein is on sale and bulk creatine monohydrate for $7.
Proper diet and training will be your friend. Youre already strong, just continue with it. No supplement will magically put 20lbs onto your total if diet and training aren't in check.

Faster Recovery we have a football workout weights sprints then a powerlifting workout every single day and something that helps with strength gains I feel like I'm loosing a lot from all the running

If you're losing a lot from running then you're going to have to eat more, man. No supplement can make that up for you. Don't avoid peanut butter, red meat, whole milk, ect Rest will be another big factor as well. I'm sure you know all this and I don't mean to insult you..but I don't see a supplement making that up for you.

I don't buy that 6 meals a day thing. Just eat man. If you think you ate enough..wrong, eat more. Bring some PB&Js and roast beef sandwiches to school with you. Youre young and athletic-You can afford to eat wtf you want and I can't.

Here's my meal plan from high school. It took me from 150 to 197 as a freshman. I recommend conditioning while bulking. You wanna get used to moving at your new weight.
6am
4 pieces toast, butter and PB&J
4 eggs scrambled
7:45
School breakfast
9:30
Mass shake mixed with gatorade
11:00
School lunch, mooch as many milks as possible
2:30
Pre practice meal, usually chicken and rice
5
Post Practice Shake
6
Dinner (dad cooked big)
10
Snack
I blew the **** up and put 50lbs on my bench alone in one spring.
Nowadays, I eat more. Less shakes, more food, more calories. Food is the #1 powerlifting supplement.

Even now, the only supplements I take as staples are protein powder, fish oil, and ALCAR. At your age, recovery should not be an issue as your training threshold is very high due to your test levels being at or near their peak. Plus, the outside stressors are going to be much lower since you don't have a full-time job, high amounts of bills, etc.

It's often the things that you cannot change that are the biggest reasons for a lack of progress. I know the OP is young, but there will come a time when he will realize that the training template and nutrition are far and away the biggest factors in PL'ing and not supplements (except for those other "supplements").

From my experience, I've seen my best gains when my diet and eating habits are in check. Its important to follow a diet where you maximize anabolic activity with timely carbohydrate/protein intake.
Once you get your diet in check I would use supplements to help get your strength up!
Protein(whey/blend + casein at night),Creatine, PLCAR, Agmatine, Citrulline, BCAAs, DHA and Omega-3 fish oil.
That's keeping it simple without going the Hormonal route.

All the food you can eat. All of the heavy weights require plus practice require tons of nutrients for recovery and to put on additional size strength. Never too early to start taking joint products as well. Supplement with protein shakes, vitamins/minerals, fish oil, lots of sleep
