991 Duck tail question
I have a '14 CS with the 030 Sport Chasis and Sport PASM. I believe that package comes with a different front spoiler than the normal Carrera S. I want to add a duck tail but don't really want to change the front spoiler. Does anyone have any insight as to whether this will make the aerodynamics compromised if I don't?

Porsche suggests the front Sport Design bumper. Realistically, for any normal driving it should not be an issue. Hit like 110MPH+, the duck will have more rear downforce and could you get some front end drift?? Maybe?
I have never heard a very solid answer in this, other than "Porsche suggests" ...

During my build with Porsche Exclusive, I requested to keep the narrow slatted rear engine deck grill on my GTS with my ducktail and was told I could have both due to "aerodynamic issue". Hard to say if this is a really an issue.

I believe the front nose with the 030 Sport Chasis has a more aggressive lip than the standard Carrera S. My question is, does anyone know anything about this part of the 030 package? If that is true, the ducktail might work without the front portion of the "sport package".

I have tried repeatedly to obtain reliable down force information on my Aero Kit Spoilers both front and rear. I have not been successful. All I can say is that I can notice the difference starting around 80mph with no PASM activated.
My former 2014 C2 with stock spoiler started to drift at 120+. I would guess that it would be even more pronounced with the duck tail and without a modified front spoiler.

It will probably add some additional effects but who knows if it will 'match' the ducktail...

Where is the thread that addresses where someone wants to use a GTS engine cover for the ducktail?

If that adds any insight!
