turbo heat and cf hood. bubble/warp?
Monday, October 10, 2005 10:41 PM
ok this might sound like a ghetto question. but how many people are running cf hoods and a turbo?? i have access to pick up a vis carbon hood for a 00-02 for dirt cheap.. i dont mind getting 02 head lights and front cuz i planed on getting a front bumper anyway.

my question is will the turbo heat warp the cf or bubble it?? its happened to 1 person and it was an eclipse, but idk if it was a cheap knock off hood.

If you're worried about it, just put a ncie heat shield in there. I've seen one person make a heat shield out of a 2.4 IDI cover with the coil tower removed.
It should solve any problems before they come about.
Turbo heat blankets also work wonders in under-hood temperature reduction AND response.

it depends on the location of your turbo. i really wouldn't worry about it.

that would be nice^^. why would u do that though?? all the hoods are pretty much for 95-02 along with the body kits. 03-05 stuff is limited.
