It seems to work fine in this example:

piece = Abs[b41]^2 + Abs[b51]^2 + Abs[b61]^2 +
    Abs[(b61 x1 + b51 x2 + b41 x3)/x4]^2 +
    Abs[(b61 x2 + b51 x3 + b41 x4)/x1]^2 +
    Abs[(b61 x1 x3 + b51 (x2 x3 - x1 x4) + b41 (x3^2 - x2 x4))/
       x4^2]^2 +
    Abs[(b61 (x1 x3^2 - x1 x2 x4) +
         b51 (x2 x3^2 - x2^2 x4 - x1 x3 x4) +
         b41 (x3^3 - 2 x2 x3 x4 + x1 x4^2))/x4^3]^2;
expr = piece + piece^2 - Sin@piece;
expr //. piece -> p

p + p^2 - Sin[p]
