I've ordered an APR diffuser from evasive.

I believe they used it on their time attack s2000 so I'd say it works
Was that their only aero mod?

They can also have a detrimental effect.

If you're doing it for looks, fine but on the road it is unlikely that, for the vast majority of time, you will be going at a speed sufficient for a diffuser to have a significant positive effect.

Also, diffusers are typically design to work in conjunction with other aerodynamic devices e.g. front lip, flat bottom, rear wing
X2 You also have to have a stupid "unstreetable" ride height to make it worthwhile.

They use the Voltex kit and rear diffuser.

I will, eventually, be getting the Top Secret rear diffuser.
