I like both ls motors and b16's. Its a personal opinion the b18 can handle more boost because of lower compression. The reason i like b16's more is because this motor has a better flowing head, higher redline and can spool bigger turbo and make power because of the higher compression. Its a little harder to tune due to higher compression, but like i stated earlier its up to the person.

that is really well said. also i should mention that the b18 will have a lower amount of hp but the tq will almost be matching while with the b16 you will get more whp but a much lower amount of tq.
