Yes, they are more expensive, but "speed costs money; how fast do you want to go?"

Boom. There are numerous events that can grenade an engine besides an IMSB failure. While The Solution may be a solid unit, the cost of the unit plus the cost to have it installed, because otherwise the warranty would be voided, is equal to or more than the cost of a replacement engine. And the engine could still blow up from other things, as you mentioned.
If "speed costs money" and someone wanted to go faster, they probably wouldn't buy a Boxster.
