On the Boxster it is a spoiler, not a wing. It does not produce down-force, it disrupts the airflow over the car and reduced the tendency of the car's aerodynamics to act a wing and lift.

A wing will produce down-force and actually push the rear of the car down. This needs to be co-ordinated with the suspension
