Changing powerplants almost always requires extensive fabrication(unless its from a similar make and model) and integration with expensive aftermarket ECUs, unless you want to run them in a hampered mode.
Stick with the Insight's systems and just drop the hybrid components and get her as light as possible adding as much aero for as little weight as is possible.
Without any extra components, maybe some solar to replace the alt along with suspension regenerators you should be able to lay down some serious FE.

Not something i've looked up, but can you even get an aftermarket ECU to run a common rail diesel system?
