Need Good Garage in Vancouver or Seattle for Pulley Upgrade

My wife and I are going to Vancouver, BC this August and I want to get a 15% pulley installed. Does anyone know of a good garage where I can get my supercharger pulley installed?

I'm also going to Seattle on the same trip. Is there a better shop in Seattle?

I just don't trust any of the garages here in Saskatoon, especially the BMW/MINI dealership! Almost every bit of work had to be done twice ... but that's another long ranting post.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers,

Here is a link of Seattle area Mini clubs that you may be able to gleen some info about your mods. Also here is a shop in the Seattle area that may be able to help or know someone who can.

Zahntech's got a great reputation with many of the members of PSMINI, in the two years or so I've been registered on the forums there they're easily the most often recommended.

Bellingham is between Vancouver and Seattle. Ron Ager, owner of NW European Autoworks (www.northwesteuropeanautoworks.com) did the pulley, plus head, cam, header, exhaust and other performance modifications on my 05 R53. Great guy, extremely competent, knows Minis, fair prices.
