Anyone recommend a decent place to take my 997 Turbo for an exhaust swap??? I live near SeaTac .. also need an oil change and 30k tube up.

Dundon Motorsports in Gig Harbor comes to mind. They are not just good on a local or even national level, but world class Porsche exhaust specialists. You also have Cantrell Motorsports in Bellevue. High end, high quality business, but probably still cheaper than a dealership.

I've been told Dundon is focusing on product development and not as much on service/customer work. Haven't verified that firsthand though.

You will not be disappointed with Cantrell, but your wallet might.

MaxRPM in Bremerton would be another consideration.

I know this might sound controversial but iishi motors in Bellevue fixed up my exhaust real nice.

I have the fabspeed sport exhaust and the tips stuck out of the bumper too much for my liking. They did a fantastic job through the whole process. They specialize in high end supras so modding isn’t new to them. They cost a fraction of the price - and its an exhaust install, how much Porsche experience do you need?

My original install I went to Cantrell and man did my wallet hurt. If Dundon was closer I would have went to them.

Only advice is to buy a set of bolts and gaskets to replace. Most likely a bunch of the bolts will break.

Cheers,

Cantrell is excellent.
Another possible option--does Chris' German offer performance installs, or just repair/maintenance?

Chris' German will do performance installs but limited to bolt-ons. To my (limited) knowledge, they won't do things like build spec or cup cars.

I don't live in SEA but I bought my car in WA. Got my PPI and a 120K service from Gerber Motorsport (although I think they've since rebranded to Dobson Stuttgart) and they were very thorough. Nice guys to talk to on the phone too. Maybe give them a call. Their website says they're the Fabspeed distributor for Seattle so that might help although you didn't mention which exhaust you bought.

+1 to Dobson, they're great https://dobsonstuttgart.com/
