SilverRocket Dry Carbon Mini Gurney Flap – Aerodynamic
Precision for Porsche 718 GT4 RS
The SilverRocket Dry Carbon Mini Gurney Flap is a
precision-engineered aerodynamic enhancement designed to optimise rear
downforce and visual appeal for the Porsche 718 GT4 RS. Crafted from aerospace-grade
dry carbon fibre, this component delivers exceptional rigidity,
ultra-lightweight performance, and refined styling inspired by modern GT
racing.
Fits:
- Porsche Cayman GT4 718 4.0L / GT4 RS 718 4.0L
- Porsche Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport
2020-2024
When paired with SilverRocket’s DRS-1 Dry Carbon Rear Wing Endplates, the Mini Gurney Flap delivers an 8.3% increase in rear downforce at 200 km/h, resulting in greater high-speed stability, enhanced grip, and improved aerodynamic balance — without adding drag.
This subtle yet powerful upgrade enhances the sporty profile of the GT4 RS’s standard rear wing, giving it a more aggressive track-ready appearance while delivering measurable aerodynamic gains.
What Does a Mini Gurney Flap
Do?
A gurney flap is a small aerodynamic tab mounted along the
trailing edge of a wing. Though compact, it plays a vital role in increasing
downforce by modifying airflow and pressure distribution over the rear
wing.
Core Functions:
- Increases rear downforce by energising airflow over the wing surface.
- Improves high-speed stability and cornering control.
- Enhances braking performance by maintaining rear-end grip.
- Balances aerodynamic load, ensuring predictable handling at speed.
The SilverRocket Mini Gurney Flap is designed to complement Porsche’s GT aerodynamics, adding measurable aerodynamic benefit with race-inspired precision.
Why Do Standard or Aftermarket Gurney Flaps Fail?
Over time, lower-grade or poorly designed gurney flaps can
lose structural integrity and aerodynamic precision. Common causes of failure
include:
- Material
fatigue from constant aerodynamic load.
- UV
or heat damage causing warping or delamination.
- Weak
mounting surfaces leading to vibration or instability.
- Poor aerodynamic profiling that increases drag rather than reducing it.
The SilverRocket Mini Gurney Flap overcomes these issues through motorsport-grade carbon fibre construction, precision machining, and a heat-resistant resin system, guaranteeing durability and consistent aerodynamic performance.
