Sounds good and you blew the phone over with a good romp on the throttle!

Yes it runs beautiful, that is not the problem
Haha and yes the power is there, just not the sound haha. Really thinking about what should be best to upgrade first, intake or exhaust...

BTW. The interior work is very nice

I can imagine. The market is so big in America that the prices are very good. And the dollar is low atm compared to the Euro so that's great for us.And will be cheaper also. I had rebulit mine locally in EU and it cost me same as rebuilt from company as Rocket Man wrote.

Thanks. Still happy with the interior, all though the carpet is not the strongest, especially on the parts where it's been getting used. And can't vacuum it to hard. But otherwise still going strong.
Yes someday I hope that I can create something like @Rocket Man , a nice blower on it. If my trans ever dies I will buy a better one anyway, and start from there haha. But then this can not be my daily anymore because of the fuel mileage. But that is a project where we talk about years until something like that would be possible for me.
EDIT: first up is new spark wires, LPG delete, tires and new MOT end of april, tune, Airaid MIT, Flowmaster flow FX muffler and somehow find a e-fan somewhere sometime. And then go from there

Ask you tuner then if you want blower in future, if he retune you for free.
Sparks, oil, filters...etc. is basic to good start.
Tires you want bigger or stick with 245/265?

You guys convinced me to go with BBP Autocal V3 + tune. And they have some nice supercharger kits. Local tuner is known for installing that stuff, just not on Chevy's. And when you read @Rocket Man his thread, you see how dedicated the BBP is and how much experience they have.
Sparks already done, not the wires. Last oil change was 1 year ago. Then changed also trans fluid, rear diff fluid and gasket, some things for the MOT.
If you read a few pages back, I finally found a set Titan wheels 18x8 25et. This will really stand out and I'm going for goodyear tires 275/65/18. But considering blasting and powdercoating them so they will last for ever. As they are from 2007 but rarely used, 1 is already starting corroding from the inside. American rims are crap.
BTW. Oil change is on the agenda also.

Titan is Nissan--not American.

Well the quality of the rim and the flinter thin paint is kinda the same as Chevy wheels. Really depends where they come from, Germany makes great quality rims

Today I washed my Tahoe probably since 2019, I pre-washed the car a several times in between and that was it. Really a shame for someone who is carcleaner/detailer as profession. 
But today, the weather was above freezing point and took the change to go to a wash box. Did pre-wash the whole car including the underside, also because of the salt the threw down last weeks because of freezing. Then did a proper handwash afterwards, and it really needed it!! Still waiting for a good place to detail my Hoe, but that will come in the upcoming months. Never speak without pictures, next to my new home
Was to lazy to dry but washed it with osmose water. But now we've a reference of how it looks and how it will look after a proper detail session.
