Ported Throttle Body - How does it work?
Guys,
In looking at a ported vs non orted TB...I don't see much difference. The OEM has an opening on the inside leading to an outlet which connects to the valve cover. The ported one, is similar just contoured to the shape of the inner part of the TB with a hole leading to the back exit like above.
So how does this improve anything. Is it that it limits the exiting air to the vac line and makes more flow through the baffle to the intake manifold?
Thanks,
