got a question for you. i'm trying to go turbo this fall but in the past i've heard my fiberlass hood might not have enough clearance for your high-mount turbo system. i would rather purchase a stage 2 from you guys but could ya take a glance at some pics of my hood and tell me what you think?

Chris,
After studying your fotos, I am not quite sure whether your hood will clear or not. The area I am concerned with is the rearmost louver region that actually goes below the standard hoodline.
Do this: take a couple of measurements and send to me at eng@turbosystem.com. Measure the distance from the back edge of the hood (by windshield, I will assume that this edge is on the stock position, tell me if it is not) to the front of the louver (which appears to be the lowest part of the louver). Also measure how deep the louver goes into the engine compartment. We will compare those measurements and see what we can learn for you.
Thanks! Bill
