Carbon Fiber is just for looks. I had to get my Dremel out to grind away big globs of resin that was inside mine (i figured it might help air flow - could not hurt anyway). I did notice a deeper growl after in installed it (thats before I did my vararam). Most say the dont increase HP at all, I think they are good for 3hp or so due to the smooth coupler and less restrictive intake. I bought mine just for the looks and love it.
J/K its just for looks. It will probably gain you a few hp but not a lot. 
Get a tune with the longtubes when you do them. LT's and the Corsa are a great combo!
