Are you sure? Doesn't it depend on the mods?

If someone added a larger exhaust and got it tuned by a good tuner I wouldn't think it would be less reliable.

I think you will wear parts faster. Get an exaust and tune on a car and that may add 50-75 whp. That could be 25-35% more than stock. You may wear your clutch out quicker along with your drivetrain. It may still be pleanty reliable, but I'd say not as reliable as stock.

thats why if you mod for real real no baby mods everything gets upgraded so that throws your single mod reiablity issue out the window.
