The 638 hp would be nice too

GM sells a supercharger kit from the ZR1 in a package designed to go onto the LS3 engines. You can put the L92 or LS3 cylinder heads onto your LQ4 and make it work. It would cost less than half what getting a ZR1 crate engine would cost you to go that route.

The compression in your LQ4 is low enough that you could run a pretty decent amount of boost with it to make some incredible power. More than an LS3 with it would make due to their higher compression limiting boost. You would be closer to what the ZR1 makes.
