After porting my TRX .15 sleeve and running it, it is a beast. Well my fiend had me take his 2.5 sleeve and port it. Well I took it back to him today and man, crazy fast. From wha the mag said, this port job should only make the smaller emgins go fast, well not only is my friend 2.5 faster, it runs a hell of a lot better.

actually porting usually only has nice gains on sport or RTR level engines...at least compared to how much, if any, gains youll have porting say, an rb ws7 II. it does not really make a difference wether its a .12, .18...or a .26 size engine. if it is considerd a "sport" engine...like say a HPI nitro star S-25, it would have nice gains from a well done port job.
