SuperNova Questions

I am considering buying a LS400 Entech Supernova strictly for basecoat/pearl metallics. I am using a ****$***** Pearl metallic, It is not a tri-stage. Not being the most experienced painter, I am looking for whatever advantage it gives me over my other guns.

They make HVLP w/ a Green cap and a conventional with a Coarse Gold cap. When researching, I see both being sprayed at similar air pressures. So is it basically a wash as to what gun to buy?

My main concern is to be able to spray the base without mottling. After painting / practicing on all my inside / underneath panels, it's still a challenging color to lay just right. I am looking at every angle from air pressure, reducer, speed, distance, etc. Perhaps I am overthinking it.
 
I use in Iwata LPH400 LV with an orange cap. SPI slow or very slow reducer. 75% overlap. No mottling, tiger striping etc. All stuff I learned from Chris.

I have that setup also. Just wondering if the SN was an advantage.
 
Does anyone know anything about the new LS 400 Super Nova, as opposed to the original? This seems to indicate advantages for water base.
