With the Tempo's mid-front layout it would be like a ninja mini-Previa.
Accepted practice is a Subaru swap; but the tidiest inline-4 install I've seen was this Pinto 4 in a dune buggy:
The buggy has essentially no engine compartment. The battery is laid on it's side and the muffler is tucked right up against the block. Without the boxer heads there is a lot of opportunity for diffuser, internal ducting and maybe a teardrop pant around the engine block.
