I can't believe these resurfaced. They're gimmicks in 99% of the applications. My 04 Honda Civic is in fact and absolutely ideal candidate for these things, the back window is just a little too steep to maintain attached flow. But flying pigs would have to be waging the snowball war of the century in hell before I'd ever put VG's on my car.

However, I am considering this......





But I don't know if my brakes are strong enough to slow the car once this thing takes over. The only reason I'll have to keep the engine running is the power steering & brakes. (and AC on hot days)

I'm going to have to be careful of the shear power of this because, and I quote from the designer builder:

"Conversely the new DIT2-wing technology makes use of the compression ratio similar to the piston in your engine equaling a 10/1 compression ratio because the piston is housed in a sleeve. Likewise the DIT2 turbine is housed in a sleeve, which is designed to take full advantage of super low-pressure vortex action, which in turn generates an implosive thrust in opposition to explosive thrust. The thing to remember is that there is more energy in this pulling force than there is in brute pushing force."

The implosive thrust in opposition to the explosive thrust is what sold me! (I hope this does not violate the "Family Friendly" terms I agreed to in order to post in this forum)

When I get about 80 miles NNE of Vegas, this thing just really starts to work amazingly.
