4AGTE!
It has the most potential for power
Or just put in the 4AGZE with pulley mod and stuff like that.
All depends on how much you want to spend.
If its not an issue then just throw a 3SGTE in it. loads of power

Or go bezerk and put in a 4.6litre all alloy Northstar V8. Search google and I'm sure you will see it.
Suprisingly enough these things have had everything under the sun shoehorned into them.
But when it comes down to it, I concur with fatmr2.

in any case, i would recommend the 4AGZE... as it is the same block, it fits rather easily, and as the jap ones came with these engines, there is also extra parts available. u can buy a whole rear cut with gear box, lsd, brakes etc from an importer, which makes the process easier.
if u wanna go turbo later, it already has a strong bottom end, or there is also a great deal of potential in using the supercharger as well.
the choice is yours.

Just bare in mind that if you do get the 4agze you will have to modify the left hand engine mount as the lsd box sits higher than the na one.
Not a big deal by any means but just making sure you know.

There is a MR2 in the states with a V6 camry engine with a TRD charger on it, looks particularily mean, I think its a SW21 though...still worth searching for. A supercharged V6 in a MR2...I scare myself with my 3S sometimes, I hate to think what the V6 power would do...
