Well, I would still doubt it until I saw some downforce numbers from wind tunnel testing. They can talk all they want, but OEM wings/spoilers on production cars rarely do anything except add weight and increase drag.
It works. There are wind tunnel numbers for the old wing floating around. Prodrive has access to a wind tunnel, which they do use.
