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.
Do you have any intentions on testing the APR splitter in comparison to yours?
