Not sure how effective the factory TS wing is though, could be much better options out there.
The question is how much better? I remember a comparison back in '12, but not with the tS wing. The difference was a few tenths of the second for a single lap (*). If this the real difference, then it means that the wing is useless for street usage with only exception a bit better handling in top speed here in Germany?
