If you build a stock 2.0 motor, use as much of the stock 2.0 injection as you can. Though a lot of the 1.7 parts will swap in and work OK but not "right". You can build a 2056cc (96mm P&C on the 2.0's 71mm crank) and still run it on D-jet, but you will have to tweak things to make it work really well.
The instant you go with a non-stock cam, the D-jet is just about useless. Either a set of dual carbs (single-carb setups are the absolute worst thing to get fuel into our motors!!) or aftermarket EFI. And if you dislike working on electronics, the aftermarket EFI is probably not for you.
120 HP is relatively easy with a hotted-up 2056, using carbs and a real header. Up to 200 HP(streetable, too!) is possible from Raby's 2270cc engines; he has the dyno charts to prove it! But his expertise does not come cheap.
