Default APR GT250 or GTC300?

I ordered GT250 but they sent me a GTC300... both are 61''. Should I keep it or change it to GT250?

change to GT250. The GTC300 is a 3D wing, and while it generates a lot of downforce, it also produces quite a bit of drag. The GT250 is a superior wing when you look at both downforce AND drag.

thanks. Is 67'' necessary or 61'' good enough? 67'' seems too much for an NA S2k?

just that and front splitter. BUT i"m at stock height so splitter doesn't do much. yes NA. local track has an "s" section avg 90's in turns. when they run it as the back straight the turn before is flat out and at 100+ and was really scary without a wing.

The wider wing should let you run less angle for a given downforce. That should be a better L/D ratio and less drag.
