It's interesting that so many 235 builders have modified the rudder.   I thought that was a big deal requiring lots of engineering and flight testing.
 
Anyway for a different reason, I"ve always thought it would be good to extend the rudder downward on the IVP on the theory that at high angles of attack the top of the rudder is largely blanketed but the bottom could be in clean air.  
 
Have any IVP owners modified their rudder?
