here you go Mister ALL IN CAPS SKEPTICAL masher who could do his own research also. This is a very well-known modification which is in YOUR gt4 owners manual to take the car to it's high downforce setting, which includes rollbar adjustment instructions and wing angle adjustments similar to Fabspeed's setting as part of the process.

https://rennlist.com/forums/gt4/8965...ustment-3.html

I've never seen such almost blatant disdain or anger directed towards a product or Vendor who up to today, seems to have been one of the best (along with BGB) provider of upgrade info and knowledge on this forum.

I don't get it.
Whoa... Slow down there turbo... No one is angry or has any disdain of any kind. Just trying to get important details on a product before any kind of purchase. FYI, anyone who knows about the additional (more aggressive) standard wing setting should know about the 2 blocks in front as it is indicated in the manual. This offsets the downforce of the current wing NOT an additional wing extension. So after the responses thus far , this product is as you say , not for me. Thanks for your time!

Can you be more clear/exact on the height these extension pieces will bring the wing higher? Your previous post on another thread say 6 inches, and this post with the same photos says 5 inches.

Apologies on the confusion that was a typo on my part. They raise the height 5 inches.

These look really cool if you're into a pep boys look for your Porsche. Ok, that was a little harsh, but Fabspeed is right, they are not for everyone. My opinion is buy these purely for looks and normal speed street driving. Without wind tunnel testing I would personally be hesitant to track my car hard. An anonymous race team test doesn't do it for me. Porsche has spent $$$ testing current GT4 wing. For me, function and performance come before looks. I too would like a more aggressive looking wing, but need data first.

There are better choices at a higher price point. Choices are good.

Another awesome shot of our GT4 wing risers in play. If you're looking to get that rear wing out of your field of vision, ours is an aesthetically clean and cost-effective solution!

They look great and it sure would be nice not to see the wing in the rearview mirror...but has anyone analyzed (and have data to support) the impact on the car's factory-spec aero?
