Don't mess around with the aerodynamics, get the OEM aerokit if anything.

I put one on my 996 with a large spoiler and splitter on the front and for track days with everything in place, I think it looks great. when I drive it on the street I have to take the front spoiler and splitter off bc it is too low. I don't drive very fast on the highways so front/rear downforce balance is not an issue but it just looks strange without the front piece on it. I don't like it.

Agree. Seems to be OEM aero kit is the best alternative. Pricing is fairly attractive, give Techart pricing and I believe resale will be best with the Factory Aerokit as opposed to aftermarket.

OEM aero or nothing, the gt3 wing wouldn't look right, kinda poser-ish.

I've seem pic of 997TT with OEM GT3RS wing. It just look out of place. Go with Techart or OEM aero. They're wind tunnel tested and design for 997TT.

The one you are referring to is the white 997TT at GMG but that isnt a replica of a stock GT3RS wing, its actually about two times taller than a stock wing which is why it looks out of place.

But as for everyone else that's wondering check the forum on Saturday

Your questions will be answered ...

That's all Im gonna say on that.

I think the stock wing is the way to go on a Turbo. To me it looks right, those big wings on the back of a Turbo don't look right, just my .02
