What do you recommend for individuals such as myself who live too far away to have you do the IMS Solution, but want to take preemptive measures against IMS failure ?

Ummn, thats not too far away.. The car can land here in one day for 450 bucks in shipping cost, maybe less if we get it on a truck bringing us more than 2-3 Porsches at once. I have cars here from 19 states at the present as well as two Canadian provinces and an engine from Hong Kong with another inbound from South Africa.
We consider anything on the east coast to be local work.
Other modes of failure do exist, 23 more to be exact. I did originally invent the IMS Solution for my engines where people purchase an engine that is fully updated. Most of these are not "High HP" as they generally make 25-50HP more than stock from displacement increases and efficiency gains. Unfortunately our engines are no longer the most expensive option, since the majority of OEM Porsche crate engines now cost either the same or more money and they come with high core charges.
I remember the days when my engine was 15K and the factory engine was 5-7 brand new and we still had more work than we could handle. The people that love these cars spend the money and always have, just like the days when we built 10K buck engines for 914s that weren't worth 3K bucks!
The choice is simple, if you want to keep the car for more than 50K miles, then consider the IMS Solution; if you don't plan on keeping the car that long just stick with the standard retrofit or an IMS Guardian. The only bad decision that an owner of an 01-05 car can make is to do nothing.
It doesn't matter to me which way you go, my job with the IMS Solution is over and no matter how many sell/ do not sell isn't any of my concern since I am only concerned with my engines and retrofits that we carry out here.What matters to me is removing the ball bearing design from every engine that leaves my facility~
