Did you ever get a final weight on the stock hood? I tried going through this thread and didn't see it posted.
I can't find anywhere online the weight of the STOCK P5 hood. I was trying to compare your hood's weight to the original weight to see the loss. I have a cf hood due to arrive any day now and I was curious what weight i'll shedDid you ever get a final weight on the stock hood? I tried going through this thread and didn't see it posted.

Subbing for interest, I dont plan on getting near close to what you have, my moms got a Jeep GC V6 and I get that up to 13.2 sometimes, thats from 12.7 and me mashing it to speed quicker (less pull more coast I should think). As far as the underbody and burning, perhaps only cutting out where the exhaust is? Leave it as smooth as possible with only the exhaust area uncovered. That could provide decent enough results maybe without risking a toasty fire? That or keep a fire extinguisher on you? like the progress so far
the stock hood weighs 38
Civic guys run big wing extentions all the time, I dont think you should/need to go even close to that Insight though. Something like this should be more then adequate

Wish I had a rotary, RWD P5. I would be the drift champion!
