quick question about turbo II hoodscoops

I am wondering where to get one of those inverter things, you know that bolts on into the factory place up front so air goes out of the hoodscoop instead of in?

tell me if i need to be more specific because i can find a pic quick.


jeez that top sentence sounds like a retard writ it.

The word you're looking for is Hoodscoop Inserts

I believe several knockoff ones exist, both the SOLID and slotted style. I'm not sure who's selling them, but check the usual places like fc3s.org ( www.speedmachineperformance.com ), www.corksport.com, etc...

The ones chuck posted are whole hoods designed to have that, not drop in inserts. I remember seeing one several years back, but dont remember where.
