The combustion pressure is directed behind the ring which increases its radial pressure and reduces blow by, there by making more power.Just saw this post and I am not a racer but what is the purpose of gas ports ?
Looks cool though.

it took me a minute to wrap my brain around the concept but I think I get it.not to over simplificate it
it helps gasses force the top rings out & seal better
less blow-by
it's an old SS or P/S trick
I just ordered a set for a drag race application.Total Seal now has it available in the ring itself
