Nat Geo 'Break It Down - Porsche In Pieces'
Airing now and had this disclaimer at the start - I don't know the details behind it though.
Break It Down | Porsche in Pieces | National Geographic Channel Los Angeles, California — home to the rich and famous... and their sports cars. Luxury is king here, and some say nothing shows off better than a Porsche. But when those cars crash and burn in accidents, their wreckage comes to "LA Dismantlers for Porsche". Here, an expert team tears down the totaled remains and pulls out the salvageable parts including the engines, transmissions, and seats — anything that wasn't damaged in the impact.

I'm watching this right now but was also cooking and I missed something, who was the builder for the turbo engine? They took the salvaged engine somewhere and in the next shot it was rebuilt.
