Ported TB and Ported Spiral TB? Difference

Hi just a question on some site I see them listing a Ported TB and some list Ported Spiral TB. Is there a difference?

Dont think so. As long as its for the 2010-2011 camaro they should all be the same. The only aftermarket throttle body (if you can call it that) is the vmax ported one

But if you want, you can post links and we can tell you for sure

I've only seen ported throttle bodies. There is a spiral throttle body spacer that sits between the throttle body and plenum.

Huge difference. The science behind the pattern cut applies to everything from the size/shape of a golf balls dimples to the myth busters proving it when applied to the exterior of a car.

The CNC porting insures consistancy, but the design, aggressiveness, and the shape all matter as you can see in the VMax how it varies depending on where it is in relation to the TB core shape.

That is how the power gains, etc. are so repeatable and ONLY the VMax has this design.
