super come up! I was kind of excited after i watched the Type R legend and they said it was actually not a cosmetic enhancement.

Nice!!! I knew it wasn't a cosmetic thing. I had forgotten where I read it but the ITR spoiler combination with the front lip adds a 10%-30% increase in downforce at higher speeds.

i do want that front end but i also dont. I want the bumper reinforcement to be SCCA legit just in case since my roll bar will be SCCA legit. Making the j front SCCA legit is hard and makes it a tad meh. I just want to find an oem 97 us lip but that aint happening

I always thought it was cosmetic until you mentioned Larry generated downforce with it and watching the type r legend kind of brought it back into my mind. :what: people just put it on usually cause its clean

if i recall its actually in combination with the front lip. I used to not care to have the wing but this information was a selling point for me.

Right, i just mean the figure was generated by measuring both during testing. Shit cant argue the looks of it either. This and mugen gen1 are the only good lookin wings. GT wing has to be done right for it to look good.

Honda wouldn't put it on the ITR if it was just for aesthetics. It's Honda. They don't fuck around.

Good stuff Tom!

i think you can still generate some downforce with just the wing. Oh well f*** it ill find out haha!

I think there would be more drag and life because you have no aero up front. For aero to work on a car, there must me a balance.
