HELP: Installing a Carbon Fiber WRX Hood Scoop

blueslsti2004 · Post by **blueslsti2004** » Sun Dec 05, 2004 5:43 pm

So I just acquired a carbon fiber WRX hood scoop and I need help installing it. I have a 94 legacy L. First, question to ask, should I get a turbo hood or should I just keep my hood and cut into it? Next, how in the world do I install it? I know a few of you have done this, so I need your help! Thanx in advance!!!

You are putting a scoop on an N/A car? ooookkkkkkk

Just cut into your hood and bolt it down. Should be pretty straight forward. I was going to do that, but I've just got other plans.

Didn't you get that scoop for an insanely cheap price off of someone on clubwrx?

Eventually going to turbo it... after I get done doing all the exterior work...

For right now, the scoop will flow the air into my K & N Intake.

Wouldn't it make more sense to wait until you turbo it, so as to locate the scoop correctly ?

Ya, you are correct, but I think I want to do an air to water intercooler.]

So you are going to offset a scoop in your hood?

Just get some self-tapping sheetmetal screws and bolt it directly to the hood without cutting a hole.

Did you buy this off of Justin?

If so, I was the other party that was interested. I had the cash, but he said the sale was pending.
