That's just my opinion. I don't think Jake's business will be competing with V8 conversions, because there will always be people that think it ruins the car.
I disagree that it ruins the car. Apparantly Porsche does too since the new Boxster S is over 300hp now. Besides, making the engines stronger/more sturdy is a main focus of Flat 6, the possibilty of more power is just an optional by-product.
