I do not know about throttle bodies , but auto makers and after market
carbs are flowed at different depressions. For carbs I know there are 2
standards that they are flowed at.One is used for OEM ,to test real
world street use and the other is for all out performance testing .
There is also a formula on one of the after mark sites to convert from
one to the other.
Going back to the first topic ,if you find a chart of flow rates ,you
will have to check if the data was all done at the same depression.
