Default Downforce

If you guys would give me ur opinion on these questions I'd appreciate it.

1. What wing will give my 88 LX hatchback the most downforce?

2. I'm looking at the saleen whale wing, but should I buy it from Saleen or would it be aight to buy it from Cervinis, I just dont wanna buy the cheeper cervini wing and get less downforce.

thanx

Well my brother has cobra r wing on his convertible for added downforce, but to my knowledge, cobra r wings aren't made for the hatchback mustangs like mine, so I was wondering what is the next best thing. The reason I want a lil extra downforce is for those times my brother and I go cruisin' or when we go to our local road corse at Mid ohio. I am workin on the suspension on my car too so it'll be able to take the turns at the course a little better.

I didn't mean to call Cervini's cheap, Ive got the cervini's saleen body kit and I am very pleased with the quality and price, I was just sayin that sometimes other companies dont make the original product (in this case, the Saleen Wing) to the exact specifications which may lead to the product not functioning as good at the official one.

if you really want a wing, take a look at obsol3te's wing. but there are better things to put the money into. i dont think it will do much at all for you

agreed, downforce doenst mean anything UNTIL you are goin over 100 mph. a spoiler KEEPS your car on the ground or for styling.
