Gotcha and completely understand where you're coming from.

In reality, the street **** or a spoiler is a half-measure. If you're searching for your PBs then you'll want a typical roof-level efficient wing. Also, don't forget about the front of the car! Air-dam is the easy button, but yes I know they're ugly as damnit. The biggest gain to have on NA/NB bumpers is to eliminate that "over-bite" the front bumper has. Getting that taken care of will make the rear aero setup work much better, but also it helps reduce overall lift, yes lift no downforce, on the front of the car.
