Think of it as a 50 year old stripper.

Could be a GILF?

Hey now!  Watch it yummi,respect your elders.  Heheee.

I'm certainly not the one to ask. I'm just not up to date on much of anything  with less than 8 cylinders. Just not my cup of tea. Not trying to be a smartass. It's just that when I look for HP I tend to go for what I consider the best bang for the buck. If I'm buying aftermarket everything under the sun for an engine ,it's just not that much more to have 8 cylinders as 6 or even 2. Cranks/rods/valvetrain/specialty heads  and on and on and on ...... are high as hell in the first place so ,IMO,why not go balls out?
   If I were you though ,considering what you state as your driving style,I'd go for the largest displacement engine would fit and make the most torque beginning around 1000 rpm and maxing out around 3500 max that your tranny is capable of handling. Now go find that engine!!!!! ;) ;) Whatever it is.   ;D ;D

Clean up on aisle four.
 Just lower your gear ratio.

Well, after some thoughts on costs, etc decided to stick with Honda.  Will do 3.5 and then a turbo if it is not enough.  Won't cost me anything net after I sell my 3.0, etc so free to me upgrade. 

And were off like a terd of hurtles.

Got a wire harness and know a dude who will strip it out. 

Currently sourcing other do dads and will have harness done by the time all my other do dads arrive. Figure last Dune trip is around 3/30 or so and will make the swap after that.

Anybody has a turbo system they want to sell let me know. Might just hold off on turbo and see how I like N/A 3.5, but open to good deals.

Will get video of current 3.0 in car and post it for sale soon if anybody is thinking of upgrading.
