Default b18b vs b20b/z for boost

can some clear up some issues im having.

1. b20 cylinder walls are weaker than b18b?
2. poor rod/stroke whatever length on a b20=bad turbo experience?
3. b20 blocks warp under boost?
4. b20 makes more power at same psi, same turbo than b18b?
5. b20 redline negatively effecting turbo?
6. b20 bad for boost?
7. your choice - b18b, b20b, or b20z?

i know its a long list. sorry guys! just want to clear up some issues i always ead about on the net concerning b20s and boost. everyone seems to go with b18bs but why if b20 gives more power?

1.Walls are thicker, stronger, but any will crack without tuning
2.r/s is same as b18b i think
3.blocks warp?! never heard of that
4.definitely does,
5.its lower than vtec motors but that doesnt matter, gonna have nasty torque
6.NO
7.b20x, get b boost a little more, get b20z boost less but slightly faster spools.

Yeah i know. J's racing uses a 2.0l on their racing integras, so i would think their redline would be pretty high, hmmmm.
