Without a serious front splitter--don't those things get real pushy?

Not enough whp to drag the wing through the air imo... Wot at acs last weekend no aero needed never felt the car needed any. On the flats or the banking... Boosted cars maybe...

yeah in some cases, not sure about this car though.

I know a buddy of mine put a nice APR wing on his Lotus Exige Club Racer and the car was understeering like crazy, and put a APR front slipper on which gave the front end some more bite, and the car was pretty well balanced with both.

On the aero side, I have a question for you fluid dynamic gurus... I see a lot of people running a rear diffuser they claim is functional (like this: http://thmotorsports.com/seibon/seib...i-1682038.aspx) , but is the underbody of the BRZ/FRS smooth enough for a rear diffuser to be functional?

Remember downforce can be added with a decrease in drag or keeping drag the same, especially on a production car. This will not happen with rear wings however since inherently they are very inefficient.

At what speeds does that voltex 1S wing come into play?

Even insensitive will feel the effects at highway speeds, but is conclusively observable when using dataloggers at speeds as low as 35.
