Default rs wing and lap times

I think I am going to put on the RS wing for lapping days.
How did it effect your times?
What type of corners do you notice the greatest effect?
Did you add any shims(8degree/4degree)?

Thanks

No significant difference in lap times (not consistent enough a driver to be able to tell the difference). Lots of fast corners that require good downforce at my home track so I usually run 8 deg shims with the stock wing. This was too much with the RS wing which I now run with 4 deg shims (car's setup is raked up front to reduce front end push with the greater rear downforce). Car does feel marginally more planted through the fast stuff which does inspire a bit more confidence. I personally like the look of the RS wing a lot better - performance improvement IMO is marginal.
