I can't wait to test both diffuser/splitter combo next week ( I will be attending twotrack events )
Glamcem, I hope that the splitter tie is attached to metal. Otherwise, those ties aren't doing much since the bumper is just plastic. Our kit, which will add support directly to the crash beam, will be out in approximately a month. If you decide to add supports yourself, you need to attach it to metal on the car to make it be of much benefit.

Looking at the APR splitter in pictures, it should create some downforce, but not as much as what the FT86 Speed Factory splitter produces. The splitter ties look to be installed in the bumper plastic, which for the most part is just for looks instead of function. That tells me the splitter doesn't have much force on it, thus not very much downforce.
