Flat6 gets 300+ but that is with darn near everything in the engine replaced with a strengthened part and a big displacement increase. Takes some time, shipping and more $$$ than twice what your car is worth. Go look at their site and their descriptions of their various engines and you'll get a hint of what it takes.

Can you get to 300+ for a reasonable amount of cash and still have a driveable, reliable engine that will last for 100k miles and 10 years? Or are your mods going to make the car so peaky that it will be a pain to drive in traffic, overheat, use ridiculous amounts of gas and flunk smog inspection?

This question has been asked over and over. And there is no cheap easy way it has ever been answered or we'd all be doing it. Bolt-ons won't do it, it takes some serious engineering.
