You could try yarn tufts, flowvis (or engine assembly lube), but that will only get you surface flow, and attachment. A pressure rake would be ideal, but outside a tunnel, you are dealing with changing environmental conditions. You couldn't accurately reproduce back to back tests.
Wing won't reduce drag, it should have less than the spoiler, but it will add drag.
