Looks only, on our cars. There was a very high-tec discussion about this on RennTech a few weeks back.

(P1.V1)/A1 = (P2.V2)/A2
now it makes a lot of sense, all i have to do is break down this formula and i'm good to go...hehehehe! j/k!

so, it does have a purpose on a certain cars but mainly looks for our boxster. not bad, better than 747 wing on the rear....
