Hello guys!

I think this is one for personal taste. If you like the look of the Techart wing then go for it. Personally, I like aero but not non-factory aero, and think most Techart cars look vile. That said, they wouldn't make and sell the stuff if other people didn't think that I was wrong!

Thanks for the reply! Do you know any other aftermarket brand that makes rear wing for 991.2 C2S? I wonder if there will be problem with the cooling even though it has that new "box" for the air intake.

+1!

p.s dont you think its a bit "telling" that Porsche have not developed any significant aero for the .2's like aerokit cup or SD duck ... I'd be a little concerned that TechART have done
their homework w.r.t engine air intake/cooling/induction etc...

For the .1 did Porsche how long did after did they came out with Aerokit Cup or duck?
I emailed Tech Art people and they said they did all the testing and stuff... but i mean it's just empty words right? That's what really frustrated me, if it doesn't effect the engine or other stuff i would get it in a heartbeat. :/

i completely agree. However it seems to me that they have done some engineering here. Not just slapping on a spoiler.

I wonder if techart can provide some testing data. Also, does this add-on void warranty.

with that said I am really tempted. It looks really good

I like it. Looks like TechArt figured it out. Very reputable company.

Porsche could have too, but a piece like this is a bit bold for their taste. More for a very niche market and Porsche probably doesn't think it would sell many. Also, really starts looking like the "real" Turbo S and GT cars which they want to have enough differentiation between.

All I can see is the Corvette exhaust look. Ugh.

I think that is graphite blue doing it's thing....... Wing is atrocious, pipes are ridiculous, but I like the wheels.
