You probably can, but obviously you'll need the supporting mods and tune to go with. Best bet would be to see what they do with Corsa VXR/OPC models to get a rough guideline.

Only thing to be wary of is with your tune. The Z16LEx and A16LEx series of engines have a habit of melting number 4 piston, particularly if your tune results in higher cylinder temps. Most people would normally just throw a decent set of forged pistons in, but you may want to look into something like water methanol injection to try and keep the cylinder temps down.
