I've had others who've driven the car before and after the wing was installed that attest to the same (and truly before and after wing installation as to not attribute feedback due to other mods).

I could not agree more. I have noticed differences in cornering in mine as well. Interestingly enough the tS GT wing is now available in Australia as a dealer installed option, and I know of several owners who purchased their cars with the wing installed. In fact mine seems to be the only one thats been retrofitted.

The STi wing is based directly on data from the GT300 BRZ. This car has tons of downforce, much larger than the ordinary GT3 cars. This is how they managed to win races against much stronger cars with a power difference more than 150hp. It should be a real functional wing even on the road and not just for the looks.
