not meening to steal thread but its kinda on topic. what exactly does a vortex generator do? Does it help create more downforce on the wing?

Its design was to complement the Evo VIII spoiler by creating mini vortecies to flow over the rear spoiler to creat an additional <1% downforce. I just think it looks so damn hot! Where can I find an OEM vortex gen. for $80...

Looks alright and I guess it goes with the whole "looking like an evo" theme, but I just don't really see the point myself. Then again I don't see the point in a lot of things.
