Rebel Front Splitter Insert GB

Haz l33t wheelz.
Youve missed the point, doing that ruins the whole smooth/fast airflow under the car thing, you know, the reason splitters and undervehcile trays look the way they do. You just dont see appendages like those on a normal splitter.
The point is that RAW is claiming aero advantages from this part as well.(besides the 9*F IAT2 drop) If someone can explain how you create smooth laminar airflow with 3 large flaps disrupting the airflow, I would greatly appreicate it.

i gotcha, was just trying to give my $.02 on how i think the most logical setup would be.

I have yet to get a quote on the Full Front Version so I cannot tell you a definate cost but geuss at aruond $300.
I would need to have around 10 orders.
Where do the splitters adjustment/supports attach to?
How do they attach?
How do they adjust?
Why do you use the "flaps" angled down into the undercar airflow, as opposed to up to where you want air directed to? ( Ihave yet to see another "splitter" with this design trait, as it would actually create turbulent airflow.)

They will be screwed/bolted.
It is a double threaded rod that you turn to lengthen or shorten.
I was just looking at an ACR Viper on Saturday and there were similar small flaps to direct air to specific areas for cooling.

^well said, i wanted to, but i think they'd resent it coming from an SS/SC.
your top speed really sin't high enough to warrant an upgrade like this. better off getting springs like you said. or even better tires. tires can make all the difference.

Even at 110 the downforce provided should add a fair amount of stability and even us 2.2 guys could use some brake cooling. I like to auto-x and I think it would be a beneficial mod for me. So maybe Rebel can answer my question of how it would fit a 2.2. He's really the only one who would know for sure.

^ true, and especially in autocross, the difference would be so minimal. i'm just trying to save you money, although im sure rebel would rather sell it to you haha.
the airflow characteristics would be far different as well, unless you upgrade to the SS bodykit.

Ok so I got some estimates today and I figured out some prices. For the Full Splitter 289.99 if 10 people buy. Powder coat will cost $60 and then shipping will be done by UPS due to the large size. If you would like a shipping qoute PM me.

The splitted will be 1/8 Aluminum and the supports will be bolted to the splitter giving you options as to where you would like to mount it on the car.
