That's why i guess, aero imbalance is better fixed using "aero means".
Not running a duckbill or gurney on my stock trunk fixes most of it. I am already down 8mph on the straights with the wing alone. Adding back to the trunk and adding splitter endplates and dive planes I don't think will be worth it for me being NA with just bolt on's and tune. I have no e85 available either
