Call Import Parts Pro and see if they're still selling built engines. Your best bet is usually finding someone to build locally but I understand not all locations are going to have a reputable local shop to do the work. Z1 Motorsports and CZP might build/ship, give them a call as well.
I doubt anyone is still doing their own builds though because it's a 15+ year old chassis at this point.

As for those numbers you listed, you can definitely make over 400whp with those turbos. Right fuel system and you can probably be 550-600 on pump gas, E85 will go higher if you want to go that route. Personally I'd just shoot for around 500whp until you upgrade driveline, axles, mounts etc. Poly mounts are starting to suffer above 500whp so you'll start seriously losing comfort for the sake of performance. Solid mounts will be practically mandatory by 700whp (actually by about 600 it starts getting mandatory depending on if you're on slicks or not) and at that point you should start talking about a midplate/frontplate

A lot of those powertrain mount options depends on tires, if the car is never going to see a set of drag tires then you definitely won't need midplate and can probably get by with just poly mounts at almost any power level because you're never going to generate enough traction to break stuff. If you're only planning on street tires then just upgrade to the 370Z axles and wheel bearings, I would upgrade to a single piece driveshaft though even at stock power levels, eliminating the carrier bearing and the weight of the OEM two piece is worth it. Just be sure to make a driveshaft hoop for a single piece, you can use the factory carrier bearing mount location which is convenient.

Hey I know this is a G35 forum and everything but I am tempted to ask, do you think the 4.4 Twin Turbocharged engine from a 650i fit into a 2004 645ci?
