Ricer and tuners are not the same.
Not every import car runs tons of boost.

Whit a stroked engine you don't need to run high turbo boost.

I'm quite aware of that. However, the 4 bangers only make their big power numbers when they get a little impractical with boost.
Stroked engine . . . stroked out to what, a whopping 3.0 litres? Next comes the LS1 swap.

3l? How would you get that ? Adding 2 more cylinders? I think a "stroked" ricer is like a 2.2l version of a 2l power plant hehe..
I do believe that the stroked version my motor would have a crank throw the same length as a ricers suspension travel hehehe

3,0 or 3,4 litre is all you need on a import hot rod.
