Second question: I know this 'functional' roof spoiler has helped the Lancer Evo IX MR by generating extra downforce to the spoiler. I was wondering, how effective will this thing be on a factory BRZ spoiler or will we have to find a big aftermarket wing like the Tommy Kaira to make this roof spoiler effective?

Vortex generators are used to keep air attached long enough until it reaches the wing. So that the wing gets 'clean' (not turbulent) air. I think you will see them more on cars that have a more abrupt rear window drop off, plus the area that they affect is limited so wings are usually taller.
On a FR-Z, the effect won't be as much as on an Evo, I think.
Plus we have the roof sculpting, which could be doing something already. What? I have no clue.
