After a consensus is reached about which piece of scaffolding should be mounted to the back of the 944.... we need to figure out if it's better to supercharge or turbo his NA.

Bingo. Very few were made however. Probably less than a dozen. Only one was sold to a customer outside of Weissach IIRC.

I'm pretty sure 333pg333 is big chief here with aero discussions. I recall he has done extensive aero testing on his car.

Unless you have a very high horsepower car a wing only slows you down. But if he wants it for looks what difference does it make? Different strokes for different folks.

I'm sure the OP is going to run out and join RL after getting all this help.
