on the topic of Spoilers and wings...or what ever you call it...

Does it really make difference to the car as performance wise?

or is it more to look...

I wondered that when it looks good it dotn mean it actually works for the car...

seriosely not being ricey many people think after market wings are better... why? I thought factory will be better because it would been created when actull designing of the car fromthe start...

My two cent...

Cheers

Joe

Looks mostly....

When i was in uni, i did 1 year of mechanical engineering, and we tested various spoilers in a wind tunnel. A small one like on the standard gtst would only make any difference at over 100-130kph. A bigger wing may come onto effect earlier, but would not bring you any benifit unless you were driving at high speeds, well over 150kph.

So for a street car, the difference is negligible
