4 port is the less powerful one with the auto?

and the 6 port has more power and comes with the 6 speed?

From: Under the Dumbarton Bridge
the 04 AT's all had the 4 port engine with a 4 speed gearbox.

The newer AT's have the 6 port motor with a 6 speed gearbox and flappy paddle shifters.

MT's are available in 4 and 6 port models, with anyone who has a brain getting the 6 port. all MT's have 6 speed gearboxes

Your thinking was mostly correct in the US market. All of our manual cars are 6 ports. The current SAE rating is 232 hp.
