Default Dive planes?

Hello...for those with knowledge on aero and racing....

Will adding dive planes help my base GT3 if I don't add anything else?

It's my understanding that in some cases, you NEED to add aero fixtures with a balanced approach.

Also...do you know anyone besides RSS that sells them?

Any insight is appreciated.

Thanks!

We have installed our CF diveplaines on many customer GT3's with great success. It helps to counter act the inherit under steer of the car.

Wow... KA's are $500 and RSS's are $1400...????

They seem to be the same design...at least to some degree!

Jeez...wonder why the big price difference....?

Joe Toth makes dive planes for all Porsche models and generations. Had a splitter on my GT2 that was perfect fitment and wicked in looks and proven lap times improvement after installation. He is mostly in the 996/997 forums but I would hit him up.

Awesome! I'm assuming Joe Toth is his screen name...?

Much appreciated!

Thanks James. I can't find them on your site.

Also...FYI....when I googled 'Porsche GT3 dive planes' neither KA or GMG came up... Only RSS.

The RSS units are not developed nor I believe tested on the new 991 front end. The KA and GMG units are the same units used on the 991 GTA IMSA GTD cars.
