I am wondering which spoiler on the market, OEM or Aftermarket, is actually the most functional piece of equipment for the 4-door Integra body style? I know that on coupes, the ITR spoiler is actually functional and worthwhile. Does it function just as well on sedans? If not, does anyone make one that does? This is a serious question; I'm not asking for huge aluminum racing spoilers, but ones like the ITR actually do have an effect at highway speed in reducing drag.

Even the oem GSR sedan trunk spoiler "REDUCES LIFT" by breaking up the air travelling over the car, so in effect it minimizes the cars likelihood of behaving like a giant wing where air moving faster over the top than underneath woud create lift.

I had a GSR sedan with enough mods to make it trackworthy. Took it to a PDA Pocono trackschool. Hitting 135mph on the speedway, the car was niiiice. Tried two things- wing and no wing... the car was more stable WITH the oem wing than without.

There are 4 door ITR (jdm) oem wings out there, you can get one thru most swap/jdm-parts importers, just be patient or get an oem GSR wing. Also there are guys with real race cars here that do use aluminum wings, like, say AdamITR and he is no joke, he uses this wings adjustability to effect their cars handling, pretty cool.
