I love it. It's like there's someone hired at BR for the sole purpose of wispering in Davids ear. "Hey Dave, May is over, June is coming, you have to go faster next month". A full undertray would be spectacular David. Jarrods music wins as usual.

No interesting in having the VG in made in carbon fiber. The stock one is light and since Mitsubishi designed it I am guessing it was done right. The cost on them is reasonable too.

Nice test DB. As for the music, I love it. "Classical Gas" was one of the songs I suggested to Jrod on our video. As you know, we've always paid attention to the aero package on our car. Your rear undertray and side-mirror block offs are just a few of the important things we do to keep the mph up. Thanks for taking the time to document the tests.

After installing my CF VG the first thing I noticed was how much smoother rain water went down my rear glass.

You're welcome 9sec9, nice to see you around! How's the car coming? Mine is going in for the same thing next week.

So the gurney flap is another 30'ish pounds, very nice. Thanks for that link and thanks to the rest of you for the other links. It's all good information.

I want to do some more testing on the front end next but have to get some other things accomplished first on Project White.

Have you tried the APR Performance GTC 200 EVO Spec Spoiler that you have listed on your site? I'm not crazy about that extreme of a look, but depending on it's performance it might be worth it. Great information as always!
