(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) A deep air-dam (or even an LE dam) will transform the handling if you have a tail or wing... a good splitter will make it even better. You just have to make sure you're getting some air flow below the engine to help draw air from the engine compartment.
My '84 911 with a whale tail is also a handful at speed without a good (read big) dam or splitter in the front. Good luck! |
