Pistons are good.

Pistons and a turbo are even better . . .

Hate to break it to you but creating an all new engine takes millions of dollars and months and months of development.

This is the reason why Lexuses have Toyota engines.

And good luck.

Edit-
And ravage, it's been done. Bugatti Veyron, I believe.
