197

[Peperami]

Diffuser, and spoilers on the mk2's for that matter, both do very little, more a styling mod.

Wouldnt make any difference under high end motorway speeds anyway.

Looks mint that fella.

 

[j111ase]

thanks for the positive comments.
spoiler next,...just need to decide which..:S ?
jase...

 

[Phill1978]

can't really see me trying to take bends at 131 mph

motorway bends

im sure it does something. ferrari has one... before you say about badge "its a ferrari you twonk" there both cars and 131mph isnt that slow.

but yea i hope that someone does a carbon fiber rear diffuser like ktec carbon splitter for 172/182 that would be awesome

However not build out of carbon fibre, but with a coat of real carbon fibre.

JBS are a really sound few lads that love cars and take pride in what they do. are they fitting them for you too.?
the ride is a bit harsher yes but not too bad.
are you getting some spacers from them too.?
paul at RS Tuning in leeds did the remap for me.(user name pm murrey (i think) on here).
you got a link or pic for the spoiler.?

The future of 197's

 

[Gaz_]

thought it was meant to produce a maximum 73kg of downforce at top speed. If you can take sweeping corners at 131mph max speed then id prefer to have that downforce rather than without

I think it would rip off the back bumper, its only plastic, diffuser is only clipped on too

 

[ranksie]

jase This is the only image I could find of the spoiler,sorry ignore the rest of the mods.LOL.
Yes mate have gone for the spacers aswell, infact just picked them up yesterday,made me laugh, they said would not fit as yourswas a pian in the ass.lol.
How due you find the car drives now with all the mods?
cheers G.

 

[ranksie]

hi G.
thats the same spoiler that K-Tec do.

http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1936
only reason they were a pain to fit is they couldnt find the 19mm socket as vag's are 17mm so 19 dont come out too often, and i only give Lee 25 mins to fit all 4 as i had to pick my little boy up from school.
saturdays are a really busy day for them too.
handles fine tbh, not all that different to standard.just makes it a bit easier to get over them stupid square speed bumps with the wider track.

jase...

 

[dje]

i also have that spoiler on mine...

 

[j111ase]

show off dje !... (you got the carbon defuser on yet)

cant be cheaper for me to get one from germany and ship over surely ?

 

[dje]

no i haven´t got it yet. Presumably i´ll get it in one or two weeks.

maybe. the price is 215 euros.
However, I don´t know how much shipping will be.
Let´s go and ask elia
