Turbo Tahoe

the wife keeps complaining that her Tahoe is slow to pass on the hwy. I was wondering if anyone here knew a shop in the DFW area that installs turbos on Tahoe's? If so, share their info please. Thanks.

Man, I mean they aren't local, but there's always Banks Power. Check them out. Only place I can think of on the top of my head is Texas Rear Turbos, somewhere south of Arlington. They specialize in remote mount turbos, though I doubt the Tahoe would need one remotely mounted.

Trade in the Tahoe on a Pathfinder Armada and slap some twins on that beast! Not much different than your previous plans of a TT Titan!

Hey man, Horsepower TV just did a show on the Banks TT kit for a SB Chevy yesterday morning. I think they said it was good for up to 600 horse on stock internals.
