There were some interesting threads on gassavers about these. One guy was doing some rough testing using strips of ribbon attached to the back glass of the car. Reported that with the vortex generators in place that there was less whipping of the ribbons up to highway speeds. It would seem to mean that the wake had less of a negative pressure zone on the back.
