The number of intake ports. The low power engine has 4 ports, the high power has 6 ports. Less air can get in for combustion. In North America, the 4 port low power engine was only offered with the automatic transmission. This was also rev limited to 7500 rpm. Where as the high power 6 port can rev to 9000. More revs, more HP.
