I am not sure what spoiler you have installed on your car. I recently installed Moshammer on my 17 991.2 C2. I programmed it via PIWIS as having Aerokit Package. I also only have standard front bumper with OE sport lip. Aerokit Package looked very good I believe value is 552. At least that’s what I have on my notes. Original value is 750. since Moshammer is curvier I brought the value down to 450. No ill effects at sensible highway speeds and no cooling issues in hot Florida weather. Where are you in Florida?

@MemoS I forgot to ask... I can't tell from your photos if you have a sunroof. If so, is there a parameter that you changed for that as well? As you are probably aware, the spoiler goes up even higher when the sunroof is open. I'm curious if you saw or recall what the default value is for that parameter with the Aerokit Package since that might apply to my vehicle after installing the new wing.

@Tier1Terrier Yes, my car is equipped with sunroof as well. I left the sunroof open value at factory Aerokit preset. I did not want to mess with the values not knowing the relationship between the open sunroof and the wing affect to overall aero dynamics. I rarely have the sunroof open and drive at speed. The only other parameter I changed is the speed at which the wing deploys to provide more air flow to the engine hoping to run cooler in hot Florida days. PIWIS provides flexibility to change all kinds of wing parameters including deploy/retrieve speeds in different drive modes. The only draw back is I wish I had taken German in high school since all programming language is in German. Its painful at times with technical terms and google translate.

I will reveal now how little I understand the relation between airflow/cooling and vehicle performance. I am not one of those that drives around with my spoiler deployed unnecessarily but is there any harm in lowering the deployment speed and given your rationale for earlier deployment in hot climates such as South FL, is there any downside to making this change? In other words, what's the trade-off?
