I think 944 spoiler makes for a great bar for those times at the races, tailgate parties , and polo events.

A 944 n/a can't get to a high enough speed to really create any difference between the two spoilers, even on track. Theoretically, the 944 spoiler could generate just as much downforce. I don't think you'll find any data on that because it's so irrelevant!

No, actually... my 968 rear spoiler made no difference in drifting performance, which is my thing. Just as everyone says, it's really just an upgrade for looks.

I would say just keep the current aftermarket spoiler you are already using... it looks good!

And please refrain from using the letter "d" in place of "the".... it makes your sentences tricky to read.

the 924/944 spoiler acts as a nice break, IIRC the small wing dropped the drag co-efficient from .36 for a wingless car to .33.

Or get to a computer and post and don't post from your phone. OR, take the time to post from your phone. Either way, its getting hard to read your sentences.

I would like your help and value ur in put with the car, not my English. Granted that in put is though comuncation of the writen word. If you guys want real English this is what ur getting, British talk, from a native tounge. So the point ur commenting on is proper English, I'm not on this forum 2 fight or be little peoples miskates and understAnding. I'm here 2 impove my knowagle of my car not my English degree.

No video right now, I'll take some in a couple weeks. The paint is not candy, just regular metallic paint from a newer model mitsubishi. And no I didn't spray the engine bay.

this has gotten off track, they are not complaining about your enlgish skills, but your typing skill, just please try to use real words, even if your spelling is bad, and attempt at using complete sentences.

these guys are actually very helpful, or have been to me, they just dont want to have to decode the type of sentences you send to your friends.

I would like this rear hatch and wing without the BIG wing ontop, just the small one.
But think im gonna go with the 968 wing first. Cuz its alot of cash for that hatch and wing
