The motor warranty will be void due to mods to it , power on mine is 
fine but it has a little work and before that was down maybe 15% , it 
uses around 10>20% more fuel ( driver dependant) which is a HUGE saving
  personally I suggest you dins a good used one and install gas on it 
with some mods to equal the performance , all the problems should be 
fixed before you get it with luck
