    Need advice on Rear wing setup.

    Hello all,

    Lately I´ve had some probs with my rear beaing to light.. i need a wing to push it down abit in the rear.. any suggestions on wings that siuts the S2.. I want a wing that's functional but it doesn't need to be a pikes peak wing if you know what i mean. I have been looking at APR wings but they´re qiute expensive..

    Part of the trouble with the design of the coupe is the angle of the rear screen allows for separation at high speed, which will give you a negative pressure effectively sucking the rear of the car upwards.
    I think a small deflector at the top of the rear screen to encourage the airflow downwards over the rear screen like this:

    Drivers found. "Give me the luxuries of life and I will willingly do without the necessities." -Frank Lloyd Wright "Why is everyone who drives slower than me an idiot, and everyone who drives faster a maniac?"


    And then a small lip on the rear of the hatch spoiler to give a little downforce could be quite effective:

    Black B3 1990 CQ 2.3E converted to ABY & 6spd. (301bhp) - Now Sold
    03 Dolphin B6 S4 Avant LPG - New Daily Wagon
    01 Silver D2 A8 3.7 quattro sport - SOLD
