Default Racing Transmission texas

Does anyone know of a legit shop anywhere in texas "near DFW if possible" that will build transmissions with upgraded parts and not rip you off.
Every shop i call here in texas just don't seem right when i go down there and they just throw a number at me when i tell them whati want.
i have the turbo kit from cartuning so i need a 4t65 that will put up with 500hp

2 of the parts of i know of are 600$ alone and some only wanting to charge me $1500

Anyways my transmission finally is biting the dust it took 75,000 miles
It started slipping from just accelerating from a stop. When i take off it will try to rev and move forward a bit and then just go BANG and then it will drive normal for alittle while.
Also my lockup torque converter is toasted. It slips while accelerating in 4th gear and also will bounce the tac up and down while going down hills.


Anyways please please someone i need a reputable shop in few hundred miles of DFW texas

Thanks

Shipping the trans to Indiana is very reasonable.

I'm assuming your talking about TEP.
that adds another few hundred dollars ontop of the 2,200 or so ?

Plus i have to find someone to put my transmission in without ripping me off and trying to steal it.

So many shady people out there now.

Hows your motor holding up with the boost ?
I've already got oil in my #1 Cylinder.

Motor is fine. Only running 6 psi with E85, on a speed density tune. Now that I'm getting the trans done I'll be turning the boost up.
