Go Fast Paseo??

Got a call from the brother-in-law today. His mate has a Paseo (yes I can see you all shaking your heads) and wants to know how to get some more ponies under the bonnet.
Luckily the solution is $8000 to put towards doing this.
All I can think of is dropping a 4E-FTE into it. Yes these have more power but going backwards in capacity.
So what I am thining is using the bottom end of the 5E and using everything else from the 4E to make a 1.5L turbo engine. Seeing this should still come in under $8000 then he could go a larger turbo and aftermarket computer etc etc to work this engine up.
Do the 4E pistons fit inside the 5E to keep the lower compression?
Is this feasable?
Is there any other way to make good power in this form?
Is there another engine or engine/gearbox combo that would fit within budget to give this thing a kick in the pants?
I have heard of 4A engines being used but have little info on how they are mounted into the paseo.
