    They have similiar power output but the b17 is lower compression so many folks believe its better for boost. But b17 is also rare as fuck seeing how they only used it for 2 years.

    not really any. you can build a b18 for boost just as easily.

    b17 has capabilities to rev like a b16, as a 1.8gsr/LS will not. Definitely more torque with the .8 but rarity of the .7 is nice. I've had 2 1.7's and they were /are good motors!
