I have no idea how much HP the wind tunnel has, It is the school's wind tunnel. I'm fairly certain it is a Pitsco Airtech 40. The top speed is 40 mph. The internal dimensions of the tunnel are 8" x 8". I actually made a mistake earlier in saying the car model itself is 1:24th scale, it is actually 1:25th.

As far as vortex generators go, I'm pretty certain I can print parts that small, but I am unsure if I will be able to detect any difference depending on how minute it is.

I have actually seen a number of their videos, very interesting stuff. I'm not super concerned about having data that can be transferred into real world values. The more important thing is comparing different setups.
