I have one on mine, the diffuser will have to be trimmed to fit. World One put mine in and they trial fitted the diffuser a few times before they'd trimmed enough back to keep it from making contact with the muffler. With a dremmal it should be pretty easy work.

I can't tell any differnece in the day to day driving I do and the back of the car still stays totally filthy when it rains from the the road spray being sucked to the back of the car. If you were to run some ORR events in the 150 MPH class before and after you might notice a little difference.

It's like the big wing, how fast do you really have to be going before you start noticing any benefit from it? My ZR-1 was a 200 MPH car, it didn't have a wing or a diffuser.

Get the long Kartboy hangers and it will fit much nicer. I will post pics if I get a chance. I still have the defuser on mine with a g200.
