FT-86 SpeedFactory Diffuser by Verus - Complete Aero Solution

FT-86 SpeedFactory in conjunction with Velox Motorsports have released our rear diffuser to solve issues with rear downforce in the 2013+ Scion FRS and Subaru BRZ. Designed off OEM CAD data, it features a near OEM fit and finish. This item has been tested on track as well as refined through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to provide a significant increase in downforce while minimizing drag. CNC laser cut from 5052 aluminum sheetmetal, and then precision bent using CNC press brakes means each part comes out consistent. Designed, analysed, and manufactured in the United States using United States machines and materials.







The picture above includes the optional diff/suspension covers as well. These are an extra option to help further clean the flow of air.

ETA ON SHIPPING IS LATE JUNE. Manufacturing has already started.

Product Features:
Powder Coated Matte Black
Organic Shape
Flat head riveted strakes (No rivet heads visible, flat bottom)
Simple Bolt on installation
Reduces drag
Significantly reduces lift
Optional 2pc differential/suspension covers reduce drag even further and aid in feeding the diffuser clean air.

When combined with our front race splitter.




More pics of the rear diffuser are below as well as our center exit V3 race exhaust system which is currently being tested.

website says wont fit type 80r but it looks pretty roomy. Is that a cautionary "wont fit" or does it really not fit?

Nope. The type 80 can is to massive and the way the pipe routes does not allow for a diffuser with proper airflow.

Looks great! Do you have any side views to see how far it sticks out behind the bumper?

How does this affect cooling for the differential and rear brakes?

What wheels and tires were used in the CFD analysis to determine the numbers?

They can't list prices here... It's not too tough to go to their website and check it out.

Has the fit been refined for manufacturing from these (presumably prototype) images? I can't help but notice in the first installed image (direct shot of the rear) the line slants significantly down to the left instead of a clean, horizontal line that is parallel with the bumper. I guess it could just be the angle, but it otherwise looks like a pretty direct shot of the rear.

It is the angle of the shot. The trailing edge is horizontal.

Most certainly a typo. Thanks for pointing it out . Should be significant increase in downforce or significant decrease in lift. Sorry for any confusion.

Is there any optional rear spat to further extend the width?
Thanks.
