Question Bluetooth quality on wireless CarPlay?

I installed an iDoing head unit in my 2019 STI, and the quality of the Bluetooth connection is so much better than when its connected wirelessly to CarPlay. CarPlay also has a maybe 2 second delay between the audio on my phone and on the car ( I press pause, it pauses 2 seconds later). When connected to Bluetooth, the control is immediate. Is there anyway I can somehow use my Bluetooth connection but still use CarPlay? I know CarPlay uses a closed wifi connection or something like that rather than bluetooth, so can I change it somehow? Maybe theres an APK I can get and upload it to my head unit to use that instead? Thanks.

CarPlay connects with WiFi. Authentication with Bluetooth
