Me again.... I just picked up a 48" high lift (downforce) low drag wing for my 914. I plan on mounting it just above roof height.
Im thinking I should remove the 916 type spoiler thats currently on my cars rear deck lid. I think I have sorted my brake bias issues .... even so I think the downforce from a wing is still good... Last time out at Watkins Glen....147 mph before the bus stop any advice is appreciated |

Be sure to mount it correctly or at that speed you'll end up on the red planet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

This car has both the GT style and the big sucker:

I guess the 916 spoiler stays, and the wing gets mounted at about roof height.
