I'm shooting for around 300hp at the crank its going into an rx7 (*Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* the rotary)
    S15 Turbo, Injectors, Z32 MAF, and PFC for 300HP CA18

    No need to up the compression, I do suggest a engine overhaul and reassembly by a professional on these old motors.

    But for all the modification that will go into swapping this into a RX7, I would go 1JZ or RB25.

      It sounds like you really want to be convinced that CA18 is the way to go... but in the long run, the SR20 will be more worth it. It depends on what you want to do. If you are happy with the gains you can get from the CA18, I'd go for it -- but there is no replacement for displacement... SR20 is the superior engine, and I would go for that.

        That's it- "No replacement for displacement". The SR is a strong motor!!!!!!
