Do you mean adding a hood scoop to your 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.

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.
