How far should an aero port be from back wall?

How far should an aero port be from the back wall of an enclosure? Would this be the same rule of thumb as a slot ported box, distance = width of the port?

Ive been looking at going aero ported to save a little net size compared to L-Slot ported boxes..

Thanks

1/2 the diameter of the port at a minimum. So for a 6" aero, 3 inches from the wall minimum.

Would there be a noticeable difference if for example with that 6" aero i had 4-5" away from the wall instead of 3"?

thanks!

i heard the diameter of the aero so if it is a 4" aero it should be atleast 4" away from the wall

It is the minimum distance, not max. More is better. . .

If I was using a 6" aero, I would stay 5-6" from the back wall.
