Technically you should be able to do either of those options, you can do the top-end swap from an L67, but you will need other things to make it work as well, Im not entirely sure what.

You can also go the turbo route as you mentioned.

Either way, your transmission isnt going to handle it, so you might as well just plan on beefing that up while youre at it.

If your not trying to go nuts, you could go:
Home made CAI/FWI
Highflow cat
ER rockers, which have been found to be the best n/a ratio:

Ported Exhaust Manifolds
A few vendors sell these, do a search for PEMs
Underdrive W/P pulley
http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_p...ts1.php?id=196
http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_p...ts1.php?id=583
And a PCM of some sort
This should get you to where you want to be.
