I think you are asking if you should either swap in a VR6 or stick with the stock 1.8 8v. If that is the case, VR6 all the way. The car will not be ideal for autocrossing though, hope you have enough money left over for planty of suspension upgrades if you plan to autocross it.

You can do the Vr6 and have a badass straight line car, or with a little $$$ build the suspension and have mediocre handling...

Or do a turbo 1.8. The G60's made good power, so before you ditch that and go vr6 give it a shot.
The 8v's are fun...
Never underestimate the SOHC!

G60's also are grenades. I'd do a 16valve swap.

G-Laders are grenades, the G60 long block is stout.
