The 18R-GEU is around 130bhp from the factory, while the 2T is less than 100, so it's definitely a decent upgrade. Unfortunately there's not much space in a TA22 engine bay, and the 18R block is quite a bit longer than the 2T, so you're going to have all sorts of dramas putting it in.
As has already been suggested, you're better off getting a 2T-GEU as it will bolt right in and it's a pretty decent upgrade over the 2T. It's not hard to stroke it to 1.8 litres by using a 3T bottom end if you like. If you want an 18R-GEU, you're better off selling the TA22 and buying an RA23 - it will slot into one of those easily.
