Turbo II Hood
Ok, As I'm sure some of you now know, I am in the middle of slapping a turbo on my N/A.... Well, I wanted to keep the stock hood so I can keep making TII drivers wonder WTF?! Whenever I blow by them (I can already!) But the TII hood looks so damn good that I think I want to get one (Just for looks, I have a FMIC- Volvo!)
My question- Is the hood different between the 86-88 and 89-91? I know the bumpers and ground effects are different. I have a 90, but the earier edition 2nd gens are a lot more common for parts...

I've got a late model TII hood on my 88. Mine came with the stock aluminum hood so I had the stock aluminum hood brackets. Make sure you get those also as the steel brackets will corrode the aluminum from what I understand. They set up an electrical connection or something causing the corrosion.
I made the mistake of buying a steel TII hood first. Check the hood latch which is riveted on the aluminum hoods. Of course, the weight will also give it away.
