Exactly why I left the stock engine in mine. I mean, I understand the benefits of say doubling the HP. But, even with 2x HP, it is still a barn on wheels. And seeing all of the complexity (and cost) of engine swaps... I conclude that the puny little flat 4 is good enough. It is highly functional and reliable.
