OR-JO Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Don't want to just go down the street to "Local muffler house" so I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations for exhaust pros in or around Portland Oregon. I'm out SE a bit from DT, Canby area okay too. Need 2.5" tossed on the car with high-flow cat and performance muffler. If you know anyone or can direct me to a trusted shop, please holla ASAP. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundmasterg Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 There is a guy named Hortenagle (sp) in Hillsboro that is the best and is really honest and up front. He's close to the Royal Moore Buick dealer in SE Hillsboro. I'll see if I can get a number for you later tonight. I plan to take my Zed to him once I get some $$ for the exhaust.

OR-JO Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 Thanks Greg, I just want to find a Zed head's recommendation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundmasterg Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Ok, here you go. I've known of the guy for awhile and have seen and heard jobs he has done. He can do customs or install prebuilt stuff for you and does top notch work. I haven't taken anything to him personally yet because I haven't needed to but I plan to take my 240Z to him, and later my Volvo 1800S once I get it back on the road. hope that helps!

OR-JO Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 Alright. Talked to a local shop - did not turn out well. Guy was going to hack up the Z. Went to a different local shop on recommendation. 2.5" exhaust, high flow Magnaflow cat and Magnaflow muffler, couple manifold bolts tapped and replaced. SWEET new exhaust. Thanks for the response, Greg. Hillsboro was a bit of a drive for me, and the place I went was a hot rod kind of place so it worked out well. BUT! After that, I found a local DATSUN shop that I wish I would have went to. They did a bit of fiddling and tuning of the engine that was much needed. Wish they would have done my exhaust as well. If anyone in Oregon needs work done on a Z, or any other Datsun, Bill's Datsun Shoppe in Clackamus off 212 is AWESOME!! Man, please local Portlanders, check those guys out. They know them's some Zeds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundmasterg Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Glad you found something that worked out, and a local Zed shop too. I may have to check them out meself if I get out that-away. greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
