class=\"esp-lead\"\u003eThe ECS Tuning MK7 Golf R Aerodynamic Diffuser combines function, form and aesthetics to provide an increase in downforce without the additional drag created by a wing. To design our ECS Aero diffuser we started by 3D scanning our shop MK7 GTI. Then a 3D model of the full car was created in CAD utilizing our scan data. To further develop and tune our diffuser we utilized CFD analysis to find the best possible balance between downforce and drag, while minimizing flow separation. This results in more consistent diffuser performance across a wide range of conditions, ride heights and suspension setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeticulously designed to provide bolt on fitment, requiring no permanent modifications to your vehicle when combined with our ECS Tuning Exhaust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair this diffuser with our Fuel Tank Street Shield Skid Plate to improve efficiency (ES#4477688), or utilize our Ultimate Street Shield Kit to maximize efficiency (ES#4485268).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd our MK7\/MK7.5 GTI \u0026amp; Golf R Functional Aerodynamic Rear Wing Kit (ES#4616085) to complete our rear Aerodynamic package.
