I hear you brother. No harm finding out how they got 20 HP more out of the engine.

BTW, MANY THANKS for creating the XL spreadsheet on PTS GT3's. Awesome database.

Yes, the Winged GT3 does that also (perhaps slightly less well). The amount of power is small and it's almost nothing until you are really traveling fast. Since the GT3 can go 5mph faster than the RS at top speed, I bet this extra 5mph at Vmax produces more ram-air effect than the different intake of the RS (actually, I have no idea but the difference has to be negligible either way)

Idk about any club or 45k, but I do like driving and i did sell my .1rs for more than I'm paying for the .2rs (WP).

Ok, so maybe i just can't resist the big wing and the two letters?!
