Um. No.In short, yes --- but make sure that the LSA is an E-LSA and not a S-LSA.
Modifying an S-LSA will void the airworthiness certificate. And once it's modified, you can't get an E-LSA certificate --- you would have to have an E-A/B certificate, which means it would no longer be an LSA (difference between FAA certification and ASTM certification requirements)
Lots of very nice, both price and capabilities wise, avionics for experientials, a completely alien concept in the certified aircraft world.
Can an E-LSA that has operating limitations for VFR be changed to permit IFR?
Yes. If it has standard oplIms wording per 8130.2, then all you have to do is comply with the requirements identified in 91.205. If the oplIms are non-standard and don't give that leeway, then you can contact your local FSDO and request new oplims.
