I heard about this. Bob told me it added 50 hp for him. Definitely bang for your buck over those X51...

I also wonder if it is real, would be good, since I hit the lip on some driveway ramp periodically and may some day need a replacement. However, the ad is not quite accurate. The C4S does not use the same lip spoiler as the Turbo. It would probably fit, but the C4S lip has a different shape in the middle, it is less thick in the middle section. According to an Excellence Magazine review from 2002, the Porsche engineers did this intentionally to help balance the aerodynamics of the C4S since it weighs less than the Turbo.
