Tim, There are very few options for change in engine.
Most who have gone for more performance have built high performance versions of the V4, including turbos. One very radical conversion to a 16V turbo 900 engine/trans.
The engine in front of transaxle, and very limited width between suspension structure makes it extremely difficult to work and other
powerplant. I have seen one Sonett with aircooled VW and transaxle.
A few V6 converts, but weight in front of suspension screws up front/rear weight quickly.
