From what i've read and heard ported/vented, the second box, will sound louder and give better SPL. The sealed box will give better SQ. L7's are mainly SPL subs. It depends on what you want though. It will probably be loud either way but I wouldn't expect the L7 to give the best overall sound quality. I say you get the ported.
