I have a NA ca18de in my exa, goes alright, but my 998 in betsy still beats it.

not worth it unless it was turbo. my silvia had a turbo ca18 and it ripped sh#t

later

From memory the Sr16ve puts out slightly less power than the b16b, but slightly more torque, all at a few hundred less rpms. The N1 version of the sr16ve is a beast though, nealry 200hp, but this is a rare engine in japan, let alone here. A b16a would be a better option, not quite as powerful as the b16b or sr16ve, but they were available here and there are a ton of aftermarket bits for them. They're also somewhat more reliable than the nissan equivilent, plus its been done before, although if you're after something unique then an sr16 would be a good option. I'd try and steer clear of the ca18 though, it's a decent engine, but it had issues at the best of times.
