    Anyone know of a shop in Houston that can dyno tune a Tacoma?

    PowerFab is definitely one of them, and yes as far as I know, the only company to have built multiple turbo kits for '05+ Tacomas.

    Kozmic is also quite capable. Right down 1960 from PowerFab. Near Mills Rd.

    I would love to run the Econ Ems but they still haven't released on for the 2010's. I was looking into maybe the unichip but am still not sure which to run.

    If you can find an authorized Unichip tuner, then you can make a decent change in power. It is a bottom of the line tuner though. Get the plug n play harness off of it then wire up an extension harnss to it to be used with the UCON, or AEM, or Haltech, or ProEFI.
