Well im a bit concern from what i hv seen on the pictures so far. Just had a though if u use that pipe in flex-stopping mount(which is not proven it exists) to create strong jet blowing under the floor, that would look to me like Coanda effect. The air passing from the front at speed would avoid the jet (like pillar) and than join later to work strongly on the center of diffuser(i assume the air would create tear like shape).
If u can manage to regulate the strength of that jet, perhaps u could also regulate the strength of diffuser as well, as u could maintain the place where the air streams meet).
Ok i know it may not make much sense to you but i also though about something like pseudoelastic memory dampers that could "to some extend" maintain the ride high. Given that, the pressure buildup and drag would possibly hv very little effect on the system.
Im sorry if that looks nonsense, im just keep wondering what those gizmos r for and weather Lotus have found something that nobody though about.
Thanks for reading
