Will it be more/less powerful ... yes

Will it be more/less reliable ... yes

Unless you explain EXACTLY what changes you will make ... there is no way to answer your question. Some changes can lower HP ... others can raise HP ... and then there is the issue of torque ...... reliability .... cost versus benefit .....

way to many variables to answer your "simple" question.
