CF Hood Interest


Recommended Posts

Hello all!

Ok, so I know there is a thread already started about this, but I'm wondering how many people are actually interested. I was talking with my sponsor a few weeks ago and he said he could have them (or anything you want) made if he could get an order of 10-100. I'm not trying to hijack the other thread, but I thought there was little interest (less than 10) in CF hoods with a WRX scoop. So assuming the price is affordable and reasonable how many people are interested? If you are please post at the bottom of your replay:

I'd go ffor a 87.5 xt turbo hood with the stock scoop... and maybe some light covers too.... I might go for an ea82 hood... depending on price..... and affordable is relative here, most of us paid less then $1k for the car, so.... yeah

the problem with the hood scoop is these cars came non-intercooled. so the ic'ed people who want the scoop for the functionality wont necessarily get good airflow through the ic due to a wide variety of intercoolers and plumbing.

I'd take a EA82 hood with a section from an WRX/STi hood where the scoop bolts to it sinec I'm in the process of getting a carbon fiber STi scoop. I should have my stock hood almost done with the said insert in it and boostbuddy can use it as a mold if needed.

Hey, I'd be up for one as long as the price is reasonable.

I personally think the hood scoop from the FC RX-7 Turbo 2 would be the best choice for a scoop on turbo cars. To me it feels like it blends in the most with the rest of how the 80's subarus looked like. I remembe a person on the board with one on a rally RX and it looks quite nice :slobber:. Heres an image for reference. Notice how its bolted on? Wonder if those who make the hood could sell the scoop seperate :confused:

Like I said, I seriously doubt the Korean is going to do anything about this now. He never did, and now will probably never own the turbo wagon he wanted this for. Plus, any CF Hood would be too expensive for most of us who paid a few hundred dollars for their car to ever purchase.

 

At this point, you'd be best off finding someone who could make one, and starting a new group buy.
