I actually tried this on my rabbit and it literally increased drag. The car had side skirts at the time and the vacuum under the car compressed the suspension a couple inches and drug the splitter on the road.
So resting height and driving height need to be considered.
A couple inches? Wow that's downforce!
At what speed was that? 55mph?
