OVERVIEW
The Verus Engineering Dive Plane (Canard) Kit adds front-end downforce without the necessity of moving the front splitter further forward.
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.
This 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.

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. Through our back-to-back testing with GearOnePerformance, we were able to increase corner speeds by 5-6 MPH with the addition of our dive planes only. The driver also noted a much more balanced setup and less understeer in the corner.
The dive planes are part of the Ventus 1 and Ventus 2 packages for the 987 Cayman. The Verus Engineering Ventus 2 package significantly boosts the downforce generated by the Porsche. 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 987 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.
