Thanks.
Boostless refers back to my sequential days when I would have a new boost problem nearly every week. Car never ran right when it was sequential .... I love non-seq.

Not too sure about appeal but I have seen several painted CF hoods with cracks all over the paint. At high speeds some CF hoods dimple, kill aero dynamics and crack their paint jobs. Personally I prefer alluminum or fiber glass over CF depending on design.

Thanks.
I was noticing the some of the clear coat on the hood has some stress lines in it so I'm wondering what it would do to a layer of paint.
