funny thing, the other 2 that are "humongo" are cars that actually see track time...

If you look at this picture, the canards are having enough of an effect to rip the guys bumper off.... http://bustedshocks.com/Chad/H...5.jpg

I doubt that

I am not sure that enought research has been done on these.
I am really interested in these, despite the fact that I think they look like crap. I want to know if they actually make a difference. There are a bunch of ugly body kits with front bumpers that look like they would have the same effect, though they look like apc-ricer-crap. I wonder if those will be benificial. I guess I'll have to read the thread in AX&RR again and do more research.


edit:

for example, I just clicked on the google search link at the bottom of the page and found these body kits


wouldn't these do the same thing? I would call them ugly ricer ****, but is there the possibility that a front bumper like this has the same effect?

PhucNguyen57 you need to do a search to learn more about canards. it is far from a cosmetic one. There was a big topic about it not to long ago. Shouldn't you be more concerned about YOUR motor before you worry about canards?

How does anyone know what angle to set them at? I would assume they are pretty useless if not angled properly.

1. canards are not a show/cosmetic mod - as the blue EH/EG

2. about killing speed - there is some theory it killed top speed at certain angles, search the roadrace/autox forum for a topic by Chad

3. The canards are not ripping off Jamie's bumper, in his topic about the canards on his car he SPECIFICALLY said it was because of an aftermarket fender...I've seen bumpers hang like that w/o canards..

honda-tech misinformation
