Sorry Chief, but it's not the "literal" definition at all. Yours is an inferred definition rather than the eponymous use of the term, spoiler.GMG said:...tis a literal definition of its impact when fitted to any car that doesn't live on the track...
FZP said:Looking at the pics earlier on in the thread, I'd be surprised if it just pokes it's top edge onto view, much like the standard spoiler does when extended.
From my understanding, you swap the top out and leave the rest in place, then code out the spoiler deployment with a PIWIS

Any idea if it can disable PASM too? Might be a tool worth investing in :?:

Hi Rob,
Having said that I also have a function list prepared by someone else which appears to be based on some actual testing of the various other functions (on his car at least) and will also post that if you want.

Yes Frank your right ,it a 15min job at the OPC to turn off the pop up spoiler. Then the new ducktail or any other pop up section replacement spoiler just fits in.

....but dont you need the original spoiler up so you can unscrew it? can you just pull it up when its been disabled??
FZP said:From my understanding, all you ate coding out it the auto lift/close portion of the spoiler. You can still raise/close via the spoiler button

Based on my experience using the Foxwell NT520 disabling the spoiler lift function also disables a manual lift via the console switch. Perhaps PIWIS does not but I doubt this.
