    So I was looking online and I found a carbon fiber hood at Andy's Auto Sport.com and I found two, one was just a straight OEM one, and one has a hood scoop, but no really good pic.

    The ViS is the OEM and NRG has the scoop http://www.andysautosport.com/subaru/19 ... ber_hoods/

    I looked on NRG's website and they only list one for a WRX..does anyone know if there is such a thing for a Legacy and does it matter if it's a turbo or not?
    It's for a 97 Legacy Sedan

    Really? CF hood on a 97 Legacy?

    Anyway, it only matters if you have a turbo because you need the scoop for the intercooler. If you have N/A you can use one with or with out the scoop.

    I wouldn't from that site, I had bad luck with them. Poor customer service and slow shipping.

    Poorly made CF hoods are just that, poorly made.


    I've yet to find a carbon hood that I would actually pay money for.
