Naturally you will want to start with a 3.2L+ engine for max power, so now you have 300+HP & 280+ ft/lbs torque with is plenty for any 3000lb street driven car.
Now if you want to add power,complexity,heat,cost & lower reliability to your car forced induction is the next step.

Plus you are going to need cams ground to a lobe profile designed for forced induction, and a reprogrammed DME for the same reasons.
The OEM engines are not designed for the kind of cylinder pressures that either a blower or a turbo create, even at low boost levels.
