From my readings, the toyota rear spoiler does not lower CD only the subaru one.

I would love to see a test with the subaru OeM ream spoiler to see if my theories are correct.

^ By Toyota rear spoiler u mean? US FRS boomerang(obviously just for look)? Or Nur spec Wing on 86 (actually have downforce)

Cuz toyota and subaru have the same rear wing everywhere else except north america

Fantastic Video, that you for taking the time to do all your work and post the results.
As a FRS owner interested in track days I really look forward to future videos with splitters, wings, and/or spoilers.

You should try the FRS with the Subaru spoiler you tested and the STi spoiler lip. And, for my own edification, an even larger lip spoiler attached to the spoiler like what we see on the Z28.

He's already done a video on how a gurney flap works; however, I wanted to see it in action on the 86.

Thank you for episode 8! Finally I have some real science to show people who insist that the roof spoilers are somehow helping things
