There are always "risks" when racing purely stock engines and a lot of racers move out of Spec Boxster and into other classes where the rules allow engine mods that improve reliability under racing stress for this reason.

Unfortunately, as several others have said, the rules are fairly strict in Spec Boxster racing so while I'd love to install a 3.6, I'm going to have to stay with a stock 2.5 which will be built from the ground up by Hergesheimer. I am confident that Eric, Mark, Cory, Evan, Tyson, Ted and the rest of the HRG team will build me the best engine possible within the rules.
