That means in effect you are uninsured if you do not declare complete details of the modification in writing to the Insurance Co.
Just google Insurance+disclosure material+fact,insurance fraud.

There are a few very specialized Insurance Brokers who do this work ,but they are very expensive.
It is misleading to suggest otherwise.

There is nothing in your link that suggest putting a V8 in a Boxster will cause you to not have insurance. Insurance is cheap on these cars, you can do just as much damage with the current engine that's in. A V8 isn't going to matter.
