Honestly, it will not improve power by anything you can feel. Maybe like 1 or 2hp differance. CF hood is more for looks and weight issues.

Mine is the 'SS' style hood, but I forgot where I ordered it from--got it about a year ago. Between that and the trunk without wing, I've noticed a weight and handling difference. That stock trunk with wing is HEAVY!!

I know man anomalous and I both didnt want to but the way the hood sits and wobbles its not worth losing the big investment off the car lol

I went with the deftracing hood pins.. which are black so you cant see them much
