There is so much missing from my car compared to any stock car. I don't think the "how To" post would come close to what most people would have to go through.

I found a few of those style diffusers on ebay. Here is one.....http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/mazda...QQcmdZViewItem

Looks pretty similar? I like the idea if we really think it would make a difference. Having said that I can't see how it could hurt?

$850 for mine all together. A little more for the Carbon Fiber. $1000+ Very nice. Not lighter in my opinion. Only bling points there. (My friend has this one.)
Here's mine on the internet with the options attached.

And don't get the one for this series RX-7. It won't fit as well . Get the one for the second gen. - You know, the one that looks so much like the 944 that Porsche had to sue them.

An engine will make more power when running on the lean side so can’t that be attributed to the higher vacuum and maybe it has nothing to do with the splitter/diffuser?

I read it as due to the aerodynamic changes, the car cuts through the air more efficiently and therefore can run leaner than without the mods, not the other way around?

When FI cars are driving down the highway the computers may intentionally lean out the fuel to high levels in the 18:1 range just to get better fuel mileage, nothing for power. So if this splitter makes the car so much more aerodynamically effecient that the engine is able to cruise along at a stable speed without needing to make much power, you could get the high vacuum and lean fuel.

Sorry, just to clarify, thats FI as in fuel injection, not forced induction.
I was just trying to clarify the whole running lean thing incase people were still confused, not really directed at you 95One.
