I prefer honey bbq. ;)

Show some pics and then we cn help you decide.

The Knightsport one is cool I think?

The bomez one which molds into the side is also sweet.

well what are you looking for, a style wing or a functional one, a small one or a huge gt1 wing. I bought my 89 vert with a huge carbon fiber wing on it. It has grown on me but most people are fags about it

You wing is rice, remove it:p:

Real wings that you can select from include stock, other forms of stock, Knightsport, and Corksport and... that is about it.

the wing that is on my car is the ARP GT1, it is fully adjustable(i would say about 25degrees).With the back of the wing tilted toward the back of the car( / ) you can tell the difference in acceleration over 80mph. With it tilted toward the front of the car( \ ) stability is greatly increased over 60. Anyone who thinks i'm full of shit just watch the 24hours of LeMans almost every car running has one(espically the GT1 class)

FD reaming just proved my point though, you will catch alot of static about it but who gives a shit what some jackass on the internet says

You'll also notice that every car in the GT1 class has oodles of power to exchange for downforce, they are also race cars that average speeds higher than your car can imagine. Downforce comes at the price of drag, extra downforce WILL NOT make you accelerate faster, that came from someone looking at a top fuel car and saying "those wings are huge, they must push the tires down so the cars can go faster." No, sorry at 300+ MPH those cars need that kind of aerodynamics just to keep the thing on the ground. If your wing were so helpful you could go find guys running RX-7s in the SCCA with big wings, they aren't there until the cars reach all out racecar trim and 160+mph speeds.

Anyway, sorry to rant. I personally say to each their own, if you like the wing leave it on there it's your car do your thing don't let a synical ass like myself talk you out of it. Just please don't try to kid yourself into thinking that it has helped your performance in any posstive way.

stick with the stock TII wing. It looks good, and doesn't add much drag. I doubt it improves stability much but trust me, the car is plenty stable at high speeds anyway. You do NOT need a GT wing for anything remotely close to stock.

THE KOREAN BEAST 05-19-04 09:57 PM

lol id keep it however the thing is, its broken and it looks like shit when nothing is on it, and i dont want to go out and buy the stock wing. id rather choose some sort of carbon fiber jdm wing.
