BBi Autosport is known for designing functional parts for race cars most notably Porsche, and Verus Engineering is a company known in the automotive industry for its aero expertise, so it’s no surprise that when they come together they make products that smash records. Their first partnership was in 2019, and in their latest, they used their effort and expertise to create Aero Packages for the 992 GT3 Porsche meant to decrease lap times utilizing well-developed and functional aerodynamic components. Porsche 992 GT3 is powered by a 4.0-liter, and it delivers 503 horsepower and 347 pound-feet of torque, although the ride is quite impressive, it doesn’t mean it is above improvement, and this is where the BBi Autosport and Verus Engineering’s new development comes.
To manufacture an aero system that is best suited for race purposes, the 992 GT3 was fully scanned and modeled to get a baseline understanding of OEM aero. At the end of the day, two packages were developed from this partnership, the Ventus 1 package, and the Ventus 2 package, both offering products that are backed by extensive testing to ensure perfect fitment and function.
The Ventus 1 package offers an entry-level combination of aero enhancements for this tuner car. This setup was designed to cause downforce gain by optimizing airflow and increasing the OEM wing element adjustability, while the Ventus 2 Package causes significant improvement in front and rear downforce.
The Ventus 2 package features most components from the Ventus 1 setup with more additions. The changes that make Ventus 2 package different from Ventus 1 are;
- OE wing is replaced by the Verus UCW wing element which was CFD developed
- The wind tunnel was refined to generate significant downforce while keeping drag minimal
- The Splitter System is a direct, bolt-on fitment
- The system was designed to balance out the upgraded UCW rear wing and develop significant front-end downforce
Here are some of the individual components that make up the Ventus 2 package;
BBi Autosport UCW Rear Wing Assembly
Manufactured with 2×2 carbon fiber and clear coated, this highly-durable product is great for customers looking for a large bump in rear downforce. This product was developed in CFD and refined in the wind tunnel, and is currently available in our shop for just $3,950.
BBi Autosport Dive Plane Assembly
For customers looking for a slight bump in front downforce and no reduction in ground clearance, dive planes are a must-have. Dive planes were developed to produce downforce by controlling the flow around the vehicle, not on the units themselves, which improves efficacy. In addition to that, dive planes create a beneficial vortex that helps evacuate the fenders, manufactured with 2×2 twill pre-preg carbon fiber, they are now available in our shop for an affordable price of $1,795
BBi Autosport Wind Deflector Anti-Buffeting Kit
For just $395 you can use these add-ons to mitigate the sub-woofer-like sound when rolling down the windows. For GT3 enthusiasts who love the sound, this is a great and affordable product to add to your ride. This product is easy to install and it is great for track use or any driving experience especially when you are enjoying the weather with the windows down.
BBi Autosport Splitter Assembly
Great for customers looking to generate significantly more front-end downforce, the splitter is available in our shop for just $3,495. The splitter is a very efficient aero device and has an efficiency (L/D, Lift Over Drag) of 14.5. Splitter is made from motorsports-grade composite material, and its design is perfect for how it works. The high pressure on the top side helps drive the splitter downward at speed, while the bottom side, like the rear wing, produces more downforce than the top side, and the bottom is designed to feed the factory splitter diffusers for improved performance.
BBi Autosport OEM AOA Wing Mount Kit
The BBi Autosport and Verus Engineering partnership has given Porsche enthusiasts new mounts for the factory Porsche Wing for just $755. The new wing mounts were manufactured from aluminum and allows the owner to adjust the factory wing to more angles of attack. This new wing mount is a great addition to your Porsche as increased angles of attack cause increased performance per testing results.
BBi Autosport Radiator Gurney Flap
Radiator Gurneys flaps are great for customers looking for a slight bump in front downforce, shifting balance forward, and an increase in flow rate through the radiator. For just $499, this product will increase the high pressure in front of the gurney and decrease the pressure behind it. Produced from 2×2 twill carbon fiber finished in an automotive clear coat, the gurney also increases the flow rate through the ducting which consecutively increases the flow rate through the radiator. These flaps line up with the body lines for correct fitment with double-sided tape.
