There should be some final drive sets from another transaxle that can get the big mph out there somewhere. May have get something made, who knows.
This and more is certainly possible. I have heard of several street and strip Hondas that can rev over 12K with a properly build engine. I believe F1s are now over 19k rpm from similar displacement. The hardest part will be balancing street drive-ability and top speed capability.
Great aero and big boost and enough money, could reach this goal.
Good luck.
