I would first make sure the engine is healthy enough for the power increase, as if a bit ropey with high mileage etc, then it won't last long with extra oompf.

best to speak to MSD, call or email them.
but if it was me i would be looking at leaving the engine standard, fit a T38 turbo & some siemens injectors, MSD will send you a chip for that spec, then you can drive the car to them for live mapping.
