L'aunSport CF Vortex Generator

Saw this in the latest HyperRev LanEvo No.06 (Vol103), think it looks better than our original Vortex Generator....

Looks good, but the OEM one is tested to work... what about this one?

yeah you are right but i wouldn't have even CONSIDERED putting the VG on without some study that it does force more air over the spoiler in addition to reducing drag coefficient alil bit.....

Based on my "elementary" understanding of aerodynamics, I would think it would be slightly more effective than the factory VG.

With the extended length of each fin, the air has a longer time to be directed into the appropriate direction around/over the back of the car/spoiler potentialy creating a very slight amount of additional downforce.

I could be wrong, but that's my opinion.
