Most people run naked I believe? We're coming out with a set that ties in our side splitters (yet to be released) and the diffuser as well. Should be released here in the next month or two.

Quick question @VeloxEric , the mounting points at the sway bar... How high are we supposed to mount the diffuser for proper flow? Or is it subjective? Im currently using the biggest spacers and want to know how high its supposed to be mounted. Its currently mounted at the lowest hanging position.

Just installed my diffuser, also used the lowest setting plus the a big spacer and a small one on each of the back bolts, had to cut about a 1x5 of the diffuser off to fit my hks legamax exhaust, all worth it in the end

This is the only shot I can currently find.

In the instructions it states to keep the bottom of the strake parallel with the bottom of the car. If the bottom of the car is parallel to the ground, then the strake should be parallel to the ground. That should be your goal when installing the diffuser for maximum benefits. I cannot guess at how high your mounts should be with specific spacers. Hope that helps.

Found another.

Edit: May as well photodump.








Kyle has over 20k on his diffuser now, no issues to date!













We also did a blog post regarding the rear up-turn lip which has some skepticism associated with it. We will continue to prove function over time even though we have proven function time and time again. A few people feel it necessary to voice their *opinions* that it doesn't work, which is false.

We haven't found a rear spat it doesn't work with yet, so I would say yes.

I am considering running in Nasa TT and want to ditch my heavy Q300. Does the diffuser work with the Buddy Club Spec II exhaust? It is not listed in the confirmed fit list or the confirmed doesn't fit list on FT86 Speedfactory. Thanks!

Looking at photos, I'm going to say it may fit. It is considerably higher up on the chassis than the Tomei Type 80. I can't say for sure though as pictures are often deceiving.

Buddy Club also appears that it will fit. Portion I'd be most concerned about is the exhaust cutout hole, but as far as the exhaust it appears to sit high enough to not be close to the diffuser for the rest of it.

Sorry I can't be of more help guys, hope that helps a bit.
