We mentioned them here, not really worthy of a new thread unless we should? Haha.

Another car joins the Tomei Type 80 diffused group!



Rocket bunny rear diffuser diffused! Modification is necessary but it was minimal according to owner.



A few others photo dump style:

It's about 3-4 pages back I believe. They just supply a cutout paper for the kit so you can cut the diffuser so the pipe will clear.

Update on rear diffuser with STI axleback:
Everything fits great, no rattle or rubbing. The midpipe comes closest to touching the rear diffuser but the muffler itself has plenty of clearance.

My MPG has gone up by 2.6 MPG, according to my Fuelly app with no change in how I drive.

The diffuser looks great with the STI exhaust and is high quality stuff. It really completes the rear end. I love how it looks from the back now.

That is correct. Lowering the diffuser anymore than the tubing will surely cause the diffuser to get hit even more than some people complain about already. Doing the best we can .

I can't know for sure, but looking at the photos, I would say the mufflers will probably fit. This looks to fit higher than the ARK Grip which I would say cannot fit. Hope this helps.

What were you averaging before, and what are you averaging now? Also, do you have just the rear diffuser, or do you have both front splitter and rear diffuser. Tempted to get one since I drive 21k miles a year, plus they look good.
