It'll be solely cosmetic until someone actually test it out. It is just a piece of CF but that piece can make the car handle differently. Just like the Voltex rear diffuser for the evo, people said it's solely cosmetic until we tested the Evo w/and w/o it and there was a difference. Don't knock on the part until you tried it

I just re-read my post and I'm pretty sure I wasn't doing any "knocking."

I started with an observation, transitioned into a question, stated my observation on a competiting product, and ended with another question.

BTW, my last question should have read, "I'm no engineer, so I'm wondering what the thought process was when APR designed their diffuser. Thanks!"

Does anyone know if someone has done some baseline testing with the APR diffuser on the S2000?
No one yet Ed. I imagine you can cutout your rear bumper to relieve the problem of parachuting however.
