Yes you do have to remove the front bumper, about a 10 minute job, it bolts on and off, with a few plastic clips.

Yes you can dyno the car with the splitter on, I dyno mine witha APR splitter in the front and a Vishnu diffuser in the back. You need to hook onto the heaviest part of your suspension front and back. Many, many dyno pulls, no problem.

I have used my splitter at speeds exceeding 150 mph for 118 miles in open road racing, it really keeps my car planted in the hiway. I USE 6 SUPPORT RODS TO KEEP IT ATTACHED AT THOSE SPEEDS and prevent deflection.

It is a good piece of equipment but needs to be installed properly. If you do that it works as advertised, I would'nt go that fast without it.

I have seen these splitters recently on Ebay for $213 including the support rods plus shipping. I know what everyone says about ebay, but if these are the real deal then that is a great deal. Are these knock-offs? Could this possibly be legitimate? Thanks for the info Vivid.

we action alot of stuff on ebay too for low low prices. remmeber ebay is an auction so you can get great deals but you can get knock off items as well too. i would ask the seller to send you more detailed pictures and ask him alot of questions.
