Are you talking about working the car you currently have or getting something else?

If you want to use the existing platform, how about a turbo 2.3L?

Stock, blueprinted build, stock intake manifold ( runners equalized, but not enlarged and gasket matched )

High torque cam with roller followers with peak torque in the 1800-2000 rpm range

Turbo header sized best for off boost performance

Dual staged efi with 4 primary injectors optimized for mpg and 4 for boost enrichment

Turbo sized for whatever hp level.
