Splitter CFD- Small Changes, 4x the Downforce (Almost) 

Your new splitter also creates more outwash on the front tires, which in turn cleans up the airflow going through the middle of the car. Good upgrade, well done.

Fantastic to see the amount of science going into the designs, as we say over this side of the pond… “proper job!”

Thank you for sharing will be adding profile to my splitter on the back of this video 🙏

I've always been impressed at how mickey-mouse most car aero devices are in terms of shape and understanding. Square edges on a so-called airfoil is madness. That's like using 90-degree plumbing fixtures for headers. It's nice to see some proper analysis without there being an airplane or an F1 car involved. Now if only you were doing Miata parts...

Very cool, I like the attention to every little detail, they all add up.

Excellent work again as usual!

I have a front splitter chassis mounted with a front square. I've been looking at other aero car channels, and only you (so far into my rabbit hole of watching others) have brought up the shaping of the front splitter. Since mine is made of marine ply wood, im gonna have to sand it down to mimic an upside-down wing. Good video dude

I like the tech information can't wait to start testing my parts

Love the channel! I'm not there yet, but definitely want to work with you at some point for MK7.5 GTI aero work. It's frustrating how terrible most of the aero stuff is designed for this platform. All "track inspired" with poor CFD models and no wind tunnel testing. These cars desperately need help with cooling (engine/brakes in particular) especially due to such a dense engine bay.

ill be buying soon thanks AJ

The front splitter shape is genius! I did something similar with mine but only tapered it into the factory tunnels, wish I would of thought of this!

8:55 Kyle would have angled the splitter in the opposite direction.I've seen him explain it better in one of his videos. The rake of the vehicle was correctly stated and Most research studies show it has this effect, except for Wagons/ SUV. If Kyle designed your splitter and canards, it's working great. 👍

C'est très intéressant

first time ive heard a chamfered edge be referred to as radiused.. but that splitter is still cool non the less

What simulation program do you use? Looking to do some 3d modeling and virtual wind tunnel testing.

Do you have any tips for those looking to design/ create their own splitter blade?

How much would the outcome vary if the degree of the tapered front edge changed? For example, a smoothed 45 degree edge vs almost a knife shaped profile

Have you considered altering the exhaust from the wheel arches? With your carbon knowledge I bet you could improve that area significantly. Doing something similar to what the 992 GT3RS to lower the wheel arch over pressure. As for the splitter do you find extending the front surface area is needed as apposed to changing the stock profile by scalloping out the undertray to create to negative pressure eliminating leading edge extension and also reducing ground contact. Which as you know unloads the tires. Is there a solution without adding on but instead reducing high drag areas?

Way interesting, intuitive. Has the incorporation of wheel turbo fans been modeled for effect / augmentation of splitter function?

Verus engineering has their splitter in the same manner using the stock under tray which is why it wasn’t perfect for me with a GT.

What speed would that be at

What kind of material diD YOU use on that..if you answer my question I will give you 2 pesos

Is there an optimal downforce? I imagine there is a point where we can say - we have too much downforce - right? The downforce ultimately decreases the forward vector by taking the car energy and creating a down vector. So what is the ideal downforce pls? (anyone?)

Does blue mean low pressure while red means high pressure? What color is neutral?

I need to get my car scanned. What did you use to scan the vehicle and what format is the file you sent to Kyle?

Counter sink those fasteners on the splitter

Whatcha doin with that 135i trunk lid? :)

You working on something for the gt500?

I think you might need a little bit of marketing, can you send me one, and I'll run it at some events in California? Never hurts to ask.

*I fortunately didn't waste much time on 3d scanners.* _They are junk._ Learn how to do photogrammetry. Much better for almost any project. But ESPECIALLY cars. This vid is a year old, I'll see if you've figured this out yet, or still are messing with scanners.

Lmfao easy money

Damn, glad other people are aware of KYLE.ENGINEERS, I've been watching him for years.
