That all depends...you could plan your route so your lack of wheel--sorry, your wheel delete--is always to the inside of the turns, as any self-respecting, highway on-ramp-apex-hitting driver knows. This is what GPS on smartphones is for.

You gents do realize that the retractable spoiler was for on-road use only, right? For the track, one simply has to prop open the trunk lid with a Folger's can for the ideal amount of downforce. And if you really give the brakes a stomp it will flip up the rest of the way and give you the airbrake effect that only a Porsche engineer could dream up.

Of course if you don't have those minimum 3 gained horses from your wiper delete you won't have enough punch to get the trunk to resume spoiler duty.

Does a wiper blade delete require an ecu remap/maf change to avoid getting a CWL or throwing any OBD codes?
