[Mk2] [NA] What rear spoiler?

Post by BALDYMONSTER »

I changed the original MK1 rev2 spoiler to a MK3 rev2.

Is there really anything to be gained downforce wise fitting a Rev 5?

Say what? Think you are confusing your MK's with your rev's.

Do you mean you changed a rev1/2 rear wing/spoiler to a rev3 one?

I think the wings don't provide much downforce at all, from what I have read they are more about reducing turbulence behind the car. The rev5 may give more downforce I guess because of it bigger size and shape, but in reality at the speeds the car is likely to be used at its not going to do a hell of a lot.

It's more a choice of what you think looks better IMO.
