think i read on here not long ago it causes turbulence and has negative effect , tests show that they cause little to no difference, as someone said if they serve a purpose then fair enough, but all down to personal choice

They kept engine temp's down, didn't have upgraded fan at the time and struggled in traffic.

And when driving it was fantastic once lifters were added, the inlet loved it.
