CF hood for turbo??
Will carbonfiber hood distort or warp when install on a turbo charged Honda because of the heat the engine, manifold generates?

Re: CF hood for turbo?? (VaporTrail)
I have had my Fiber Images hood on for a month now and it looks GREAT!!! No problems with discoloring or warping.
I know one lude that has some cheap *** CF that has problems with the heat from his header. But i guess if you buy cheap **** you get cheap **** and have problems.

I've had 3 different turbos on 3 different motors on my EG since 96 and I have had a Spoon hood since 98 and I have had no problems except for the wastegate bumping the hood.
