Do you mean adding a hood scoop to your NA hood?

flipside27 12-09-2007 09:37 AM

yup thats what i mean

i know they have like , carbon fiber scoops that you can just bolt and bondo on or something like that , ive only seen the results for other cars like subarus but never for an FC NA hood

You can find TII hoods with the factory scoop in the $100 to $200 range in the online classifieds all the time.



But this might be a moot point. If your doing a turbo swap you might want to look into a Front Mount Intercooler. Then find yourself a aluminum Vert hood and be done with it, or keep your stock metal one.

thanks man will do

ive seen hoods for sale in the 500-600 range but never 200

I sold my last TII hood for $200. Just search around and you will find one. Its cheaper and easier to buy a hood with a factory scoop in it rather than butchering your NA hood to put in one thats ugly.
