No body kit you can buy will increase the handling of your car. If you want to help the handling, you would need to put a flat panel on the bottom, with a front splitter and a rear diffuser. All this only helps when you're traveling at track speed anyway. Why do you need to raise your car?

In reality, I would like to think my front lip and rear splitter is doing something, but there is a 99% chance its not. The only way to tell is if you took your car to a wind tunnel and had it tested, and lets face it, unless your racing professionally thats not going to happen
