Seattle/Portland shop recommendations

Hi,

I am planning on tavelling to Seattle and Portland and was looking for a shop to install a set of pullies and possibly a set of race cats and ecu work. Anybody know or can recommend any shops in those two cities?

Thanks in advance!

I thought they only worked on aesthetics?

I've never dealt with them but MaxRPM in Bremerton WA is an authorized Kleemann dealer. Their website says they do dyno tuning as well.

Yup, that is where I got mine.

I am however getting a set of ModSport wheels from Car Nutz shortly. I may also have them powdercoat my brakes red and add white Brembo brake stencils.

Lol, he's already been and gone. I'm actually looking at performance mods like ECU mapping, race cats etc.... I don't think Sunil does all that.

Shops I use in Portland:

Matrix Integrated, Inc. for installs and maintenance: http://www.matrixintegrated.cc/

pdxtuning.com for dyno. They do a lot of custom tuning, mainly for Subarus.

I'd contact either one with specifics. Jeremy at Matrix is a huge help and they are authorized Kleemann, Brabus, Renntech, etc. Tell him that Jeff referred you.
