| In a carburetor, the air and gas mix and then is fired. Those were directly replaced with throttle bodies for a central fuel injection. If you create more air turbulence, then you get a better mixture. The TBS is designed to spin the air as it enters the throttle body and improve the air mix and burn better. That was why they added power on older engines. On a modern engine, the fuel is injected directly into the cylinder. So spinning the air shouldn't do much.
