(bad) chop to show what it would be like on a stock width S2000:



now that i'm looking at it again it seems my scaling was off. it should be a bit wider than the car...but i scaled each of the 2 pics so that the trunks lined up...hmm.

rashad you can get away with that wing only and i mean only if you get the fmic and your sc on the car lol...the S has about 100lbs of lift on the rear near 90mph...so I would suggest putting it to the least angle of attack...at the higher AOA the wing doesnt become efficient till about 120mph...now if the wing produces under 200lbs of downforce you should be fine...if more than that the rear of the vehicle may squat...but you wont be driving over 120 will you, so you should be fine...personally i would have went for a diffuser over this but since you have it just get a front splitter to balance out the look....and just b/c the wing is so big i have to say this "tower this nightcrawler7188 on runway two three standing by"...."7188 you are cleared for takeoff"

lol thanks for the advice and gluck on your decision about the VTSC

i just need time and a few misc. parts to complete that kit!

sparrow

yea thanx...the only reason the decision is hard is b/c i love the way the S is now and I'm completely happy with it...I have the cash for it thats not an issue its just whether or not I would use it to its capability

nightcrawler7188

^^get it and you will probably end up using it to its capability. that + the 4.77s and you'll be one fast mofo. btw who installed your yellow box?? pm me please so we don't whore up this thread with our usual IM-style conversation

Maybe I'm about to approach this wrong, and if I am hopefully someone points this out but, my take anything you do can have one of two resulting outcomes on handling; oversteer, or understeer. More downforce in the back = less in the front = understeer. Seems like if you like the look, you can find other ways to dial out the understeer such as with your alignment, a non-staggered tire setup, rear sway, whatever...

I really hope someone that knows more about this can provide some insight as the above is merely hypothetical.

nightcrawler7188

^^i'll take this in to consideration.

so i finally got around to setting the wing on the trunk and taking some pics. i'll post them tonight. maybe the wing in the pic i included already is a different version? because when i put it on it lined up perfectly with the sidewalls of the rear tires.
