Really good answers in this thread. I'll try to add something to it.

From a lot of reading and other people's data:

For the wing to work properly, you need higher velocity air under it, and...

Throwing a bunch of aero parts on a car won't make it go faster around the track. You don't seem to understand why you even put a wing on a car. The goal isn't to generate the most amount of down...

That spoiler is more of a gurney flap imo which will add a bit of drag.

I would get a TRD spoiler because any air that's not going over the wing needs to GTFO the back of your car as fast as...

Based on my nonexistent professional aerodynamics experience and the total lack of data, I am 110% sure that spoiler is too aggressive for optimal use with the wing.

The wing should be more efficient, better L/D. Spoiler should have a higher drag penalty. Then the question of the interaction...will the spoiler choke the...

Yeah, that's my fear that anything that will sound good on the street will also bark on startup. I myself dig the sound. My sleeping wife and five year old, not so much.
