keep in mind you don't ever get anything for nothing. the bill is good for a certain speed range. maybe 100-130 (totally throwing out numbers for the sake of illustration)... beyond that and below that it's back to the same flow seperation and drag associated with the normal wing.

regularly it might be good for 90-110... putting on this thing shifts the numbers around... maybe even broadens it... perhaps 90-130 (it can) but it's not a miracle cheat! and only testing will tell you the final story.

Maybe it's about time this thread got closed. Not even close to the original topic anymore.

edit: Never mind, someone's still on point. LoL. You guys with your neons and spinners, or whatever the hell you're talking about, need to tone it down.

acutally it'd be great if a mod could seperate the aerotalk out from the original thread.

For anyone that's interested, you can get one of these @ http://lancershop.com/customer/produ...?productid=119

Unfortunately they are currently out of stock, but they are going for $220 which seems a little lower than everyone has been stating.

sounds like we have a new type of discrimination, 'ricism'
Gees, why does everyone result to claiming racism or profiling when people are proven wrong? This is so pathetic its rediculous. Its like this immigration deal. Just because we Americans want to shut down our borders, which should happen, all the Mexicans play the race card. I mean this is ludicrous. When does it end?

Yeah, the wing is just B.S. like you said. I don't know what those Mitsubishi engineers were thinking of. They should listen to you instead.
When did I say that? I beleive I said that the lip is pointless for everyday use. I never said that. Please read a little more carefully sir. I would appreicate it if you didnt put words in my mouth.

He didn't prove anything or anybody "wrong." Trinydex was making a joke about mods done to a car only for their look as opposed to function, or expensive modifications done that don't add much function compared to a cheaper alternative. Like the latest mad tyte JDM iridium exhaust w/ kryptonite glazed tip vs. a Megan or Buschur. It was a play on words: "Rice - cism"
