    Is this for a specific engine? CLearly not an m50, as that was just hypothetical correct?

      Any motor really, but now that I just bought a 325ic with an M50, it wouldn't hurt if the shop was familiar with BMW engines.

          In preparation for a turbo build. Mine has 216k on it, feels like it's functioning properly, so I'm exploring this option instead of taking a flier on a lower mileage car that may or may not have been maintained.

          I'm going to be acquiring turbo bits as I learn more about the pieces I need to achieve my goal of 500whp. Lots of guys on BFC doing it with ARP studs and a head gasket (plus the obvious injectors etc). However, most of them don't have the mileage I do..

            Would most definitely trust the shop that built did the machine work on my motor. Located in Fond du lac

                      I've taken apart plenty of 200k BMW engines and have not yet seen one that needed a refresh. Just take the head off and get it refreshed,  get ARP's and cut ring hg and spacer if you don't want to run e85. If anything, increase the ring gap for boost. 

                      500whp will be cake!

                        What do you consider "refreshed" ? That's good to hear, I'm actually seeing quite a few higher mileage boosted cars out there, so perhaps I won't need anything too involved past the cut ring headgasket/studs..

                          Most likely valve guides will need to be replaced, and at least checked, cut the valve seats, resurface it, check the springs and retainers as well as the lifters.
