I have a total Noob ? Can someone explain ports on the nitro engines. I searched all over the web and can't find it. I assume the more ports the better?

from my understanding the the less ports the more torque the more ports the higher rpm short and simple version but you can get a higher quality engine that has better cuts to the ports which make the ports perform better and make my first sentence totaly contrdict itself

Not that I am aware or but there is a good article for modding the Savage 25 engine. I was going to do it but I broke the block on a bad landing before I got the chance.
