the wing

i do not actually own an EVO or a Mitsubishi for that fact but i need to know what the length between the two mounting posts on an EVO 8-9 (mounting dimensions if you will) because although i dont own an EVO i love the wings and would like to put on on my Spec-v so i need to know if it fits.

(pic related its the current wing on the car and the trunk lid will be carbon fiber along with the wing i was looking at)

before i go any futher why are you putting a evo wing on your sentra? The sentra doesn't need downforce in the rear they already wheel hop as it is...... Do you race your car? drag/autocross/any kind of racing? or is a show car? your deck lid is not completely flat it has a round curve to it and may just look retarded not sitting flush even if it fits. I have seen it forced on a TC and it just didn't go. Answer my racing or show car question and i will give you the answer.

i do autocross and a little bit of time attack so i figured the evo wing was high enough to ad down force in the corners + i do drags for fun. the one i was looking at is an adjustable 3 piece set up so it wont bother the car too much for wheel hop or going out to the drags. ad the SS suspension kit from tein and it will be fine.
and i do take it to some shows but i can custome make a spacer to make it look like its made for the car.

none of the usdm evo wings are adjustable......the evo 7 wing is but it is a different wing and i think the base mounting points are a different shape. as for autocross i can only see the wing hurting you being more drag and not getting up to hig enough speeds to need downforce. Now for t/a it should help some but like i said the usdm wings are not adjustable.
