MSO introduces High Downforce Kit for 570S

Rear spoiler on your McLaren 570S not fancy enough? MSO will see to that…

Did you miss out on a McLaren 600LT? Well, good news, you can now bring your standard 570S one step closer to emulating its track-devouring big brother. That’s thanks to the McLaren Special Operations’ High Downforce Kit, which is now available to be fitted to your existing 570S or 570S Spider – sorry 570 GT owners, you’re out of luck – by your McLaren Dealer.

The High Downforce Kit adds a whopping 75kg of extra downforce to the 570S thanks to two very clever additions. Firstly, the fitment of underfloor guide vanes beneath the front of the car which creates a low pressure zone, sucking it to the track. This is necessary to retain balance with the rear, which now sports a mahoosive carbon fibre wing, increasing high-speed stability without impacting upon the car’s famously agile handling.

That wing is finished in Gloss Visual Carbon Fibre, with contrasting MSO-branded end panels in Palladium Grey, and sports a new central brake light which your track day chums will presumably now spend more time looking at. The entire kit was somehow put through 10,000 continuous miles of high speed usage, with data gathered to measure the resulting increase in balance, yaw control and performance. But we’ll let professional racer Ross Kaiser finish explaining about it in the video below.
