I think a rear diffuser would really set the back off nice. My .02 though.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I wanted to do something a little different as opposed to getting the 20g. I just wanted an extra kick in hp not a butt load more. I still get to retain the stock top-mount but injectors, pump will be replaced w/ possible methane injection and hope to throw down 320 whp, which is respectable. Plus the VF22 is only $800 on Gruppe-S.

It's funny you say that. I was either going with the HKS CF defuser or a Seibon trunk lid and keep the factory wing attacted, I obviously went with option #2.
