eMugen kit really wind tunnel tested??

For $hits and giggles I was curious to know if the rumors about the actual Mugen kit being wind tested for aerodynamics was true. Does anyone know any information about this or have a good link to a site? Also curios to know if the Mugen spoiler or especially the JDM spoiler since I have one, would actually make a difference in aerodynamics. I know that it dosent matter much on FWD cars but just out of questioning since im sorta tired of seeing the same threads....Anyone care to put any input into aerodynamics?

Aerodynamics are very important even at the back of a front wheel drive race car. You can set your car up loose for the low speed turns and bias the aero to help tighten up the car in the higher speed stuff.

w3rd, thats why they are called aero kits & not bodykits, they are for aerodynamics if anyone didnt know that tisk tisk. I mean why else would u replace ur perfectly okay OEM bumpers? To be like Fast and the Furious
