So I was looking for something in the middle and finally found it but am now questioning myself. I was looking at the Impul wing but started to wonder if it was too low to get the downforce of a high wing and with the space between wing and hatch, wouldn't perform as well as beefed up diffuser.

I plan on going FI in the spring and road tracking the car 4 times a year so I'd like to get 'some' help back there.

Any thoughts? I'd also take suggestions on other options. Thanks.

I think this wing is more for aesthetic purposes than anything else. If you really think you need some aero help at the rear I would look elsewhere at one of the purpose built downforce wings. Otherwise these aesthetic wings probably won't do any more (probably less) than what the NISMO wing does, which is provide a little bit of downforce at speed... but really not much.
