Seeking North TX installer/technician to do performance upgrades
Guys/Gals....Hello again! Having trouble locating a north Texas shop to do performance upgrades on 5.0 XKR/XJL. Wanting to do pulley upgrades, ECU remap, cooler install,etc but have had zero luck finding a shop. I'm surprised as N.Texas is so high performance car oriented. Anyone in North TX doing this work??? As always, thanks for your help!

Be aware that the 'upgrades' are very minimal, expensive and usually disappoint the owners for money spent. The supercharger overdrive works a bit, but the design of it is pretty much maxxed how it is now. ECU remap is not much, tricky and maybe 10% a benefit.
I know a guy who spent well over ten grand on just the parts and he was mostly disappointed with the marginal improvement. He went whole-hog on it also.

Thanks guys
thanks people for the replies and suggestions......much appreciated. AlphaJag, will be very interested in your remap and hardware upgrades BUT my problem is NOT being able to find a local(or near-by) hardware installer. Have talked to several locals who claim to be performance oriented but back-pedaled once I mentioned pulleys and ECU's. So-ooo...no joy for now.
