Ok here is what I think, and you can use my pesonall experience and knowledge if you choose to. My info is based on my hands on with dealing with these engines for many of years. Best thing to do is to find head with loom and all accessories attatched to the loom and ecu from the 4agze or 4age. I prefer the 4agze and you should to because you are going to run boost and the 4agze is quite ready for that. As for the 12 psi on the stock 4agze being your limit is false and I always like to make that correction as it has been floating around forums for years. Be sure to get the AFM as well. With this setup you can use Safc to control fuel or a greddy emanage. You will obviously need to interface the gze loom to your existing Efi. The link you posted with the guy that makes looms might be quite advantagous if he can do something for you affordable as his work looks very clean.
I personally would not be interested in mix matching parts as you get closer to a Mickey Mouse swap vs a dependable daily driver with OEM engine bay configuration. Standalone should be the last thing on your mind for this project trust me. I currently have a 7agze running (my brothers, but I put it together) and he is using the 4agze head and loom complete on 7a block, gze pistons, and stock 7a rods that have been balanced, polished, and bronze bushed so it is now a full floating piston like that of the 4ag/gze. Not to get you off course of what you are trying to do at all, but why not 7agze? This way you get yourself a complete 4agze with everything much like you would get in a front clip and use the pistons head wireloom ecu and accessories including the s/c. If you choose to turbo down the road then you will have that option to remove the blower and add a turbo. Or heck maybe you want to twincharge. You have many options with the 4agze and you will not have to modify like you will need to modify to get yourself a 7agte, ie exhaust manifold, turbo, downpipe fab, ect. Best bang for your buck and ease of putting a hybrid together would surely be a 7agze. Heck, maybe you might want to upgrade your blower as I have done here. http://upload.3sgtemr2.com/upload/MVC-048S.JPG That is a twinscrew blower that is a supercharger down low, and has turbo efficiency up top unlike any other blower on the market. Good for 200+ hp at the wheels on a 1.6 and just to let you know a mazda miata 1.8 liter made 285 to the wheels with the exact same blower, and is much more streetable then a turbo.
