Technical Features

• Featuring an aerodynamic 3D airfoil shape, the GTC Series wings strive to strike an optimal balance between downforce and drag. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses have confirmed the effectiveness of this design in maximizing downforce while reducing resistance.
• The GTC Series airfoils are renowned for their remarkable strength and lightweight structure, which are achieved by crafting them from carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials. These airfoils are woven with pre-soaked carbon fibers, providing an unparalleled combination of durability and lightness. To produce these airfoils, pre-impregnated composite production techniques are utilized along with a high-temperature autoclave, vacuum bagging, and top-quality aluminum billet molds.
  • The stability and strength of the GTC Series airfoils are improved by the addition of 10mm 6061 billet aluminum pedestals coated in flat black powder. These aircraft-grade supports, composed of lightweight yet sturdy carbon fiber composites, guarantee the firm attachment of your carbon fiber airfoil.

Applications

• 2003-2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII – CT9A
• 2005-2007 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX – CT9A
