aerokits are certainly an improvement and would increase downforce - it would stop a lot of air from getting under the car. i was thinking more to the fact that the centre rad on the box is angled so as to vent the air down; even an aerokit can't fix that. from what i could see it is difficult to angle it up as the bumper gets in the way. you could remove the bumper, drill the bumper or space the centre rad forward, but that's all work. the only easy soln i could was was that, if you deleted your front a/c condensers and plugged the vents on the bottom of your bumper cover, then the third rad would be forced to vent out the side with the two side rads.

it's also interesting to do some reading about wheel well pressure zones; it makes sense why porsche didn't vent the side rads onto the front brakes and sent the air out to the side instead. some vents at the top of the wheel wells would do good things for the boxster.
