OVERVIEW
The Verus Engineering Dive Plane (Canard) Kit adds front-end downforce without the necessity of moving the front splitter further forward. The dive planes are able to be installed with 3M VHB tape or bolts and nuts. Paper templates are included to ensure proper install location is achieved for maximum benefits.
Utilizing state-of-the-art analysis software during the R&D process, we were able to extract more performance for the given build volume; increasing downforce generated from the dive planes. We designed these units using scan data obtained internally; ensuring an OE like fit and finish on the units.
The dive plane kit was designed for owners looking to shift aero balance forward to help aid in balancing out a large rear wing or diffuser.
Note: Available in single or dual configurations.

Science:
The street front splitter is part of our Ventus 1 package for the FRS BRZ GT86. The goal of this kit is to improve aerodynamic performance over factory in a safe and aerodynamically balanced way. The Ventus 1 package is designed for the enthusiast who frequents track days and wants an effective aerodynamic package that balances the car at speed. All the components were designed to work together as a package. If you need more downforce, check out the Ventus 2 Package.
The street front splitter is a great item if you're looking for additional front end grip at speed and great at balancing out various rear aero devices.
Science:
Dive planes, when designed properly, can increase front end grip and corner speed through improving front end downforce and reducing lift in other areas of the vehicle. We utilized ANSYS CFD software to improve the performance of our dive plane kit. Utilize one unit for a slight increase in front end downforce, or dual units for an even larger impact on front end grip.
The dive planes are part of the Ventus 2 package for the VA WRX/STI. The Verus Engineering Ventus 2 package significantly boosts the downforce generated by the VA WRX. We developed the Ventus 2 kit to provide a safe aerodynamic balance at speed to ensure safety and improved handling at high rates of speed. The Verus Engineering Ventus 2 package helps the VA WRX get more from the tires at the track as well as improved confidence on the street. The Ventus 2 package is more geared towards a track car, but can still be utilized on a daily.
