what does ported mean?

I think it means that if you have, say a tube, you shave off some of the material inside to make the interior diameter greater. This is why if you port & polish exhaust manifolds you increase the flow.

Opening up certian things such as a throttlebody, Inlet/outlet of a */c, intake ports in the LIM, intake/exhaust ports in the heads, and exhaust manifolds to get more flow.
There is a right and wrong way to do each of these.

Polishing makes the surface smoother, allows for better airflow as opposed to a rough surface and less turbulence compared to the same.....or thats my understanding at least.
