Default Ducktail or A-line spoiler stability/handling?

Hi has any one with a Ducktail bootlid or A-line spoiler got any views on how they have affected handling and high speed stability.
Have been driving without any spoiler this weekend after my carbon wing self destructed, and it doesn't feel good.
Like the look of the carbon ducktail bootlid but worried it may not do too much.

I have no answer to your question, but what happened to your spoiler?

Yes flat out in sixth load bang, look in mirror to see spoiler folded downwards from mounting outwards.
On inspection rear edge split apart across most of the width.
Don't buy cheap **** from China!!
