They're not different engines - this is the same idea as with all the different CFM56-7B ratings on the NG. It's the exact same engine and the customer just pays more for an EEC software unlock that gives it the 115k rating. We've modeled the 110k for the base pack and the 115k will come with the 300ER. (before anyone starts complaining, our 110k modelling on the 200LR and F has the TO-B option that effectively makes it like a 115k for takeoff.) The 110B is the standard engine on both the 200LR and the F - only a handful of operators (Ethiopian is the only I'm actually aware of) have gone with the 115B option. Do not worry - the airplane is ridiculously overpowered with the 110Bs already.

Not only Ethiopian...

Well then let up! Which carrier is this!?

Will there also be options to have the RR Trent 800 engines as well? Even though I think the GE's look a lot sexier, but the Trent 800's sound amazing!

No, the 200LR, 777F and 300ER are only offered with GE90s in real life. If we do the 200ERs eventually that will be when you get the RR and PW engines.

Thanks Ryan for the info. Can't wait to get my hands on this 777!

Air Austral. 

Sorry to bump this old topic but is there any way to equip the 115B's on the 200LR?

You probably would not notice a huge difference, except perhaps out of, say, Abu Dhabi on a 40+ Celsius day at MTOW. The additional 10,000lbs of thrust is only a 4.5% increase, which on the vast majority of flights would not make much difference when you are derating / assumed-temping anyway. Hence why so few airlines chose this option.
