Hood Scoop?

[G_Unit]

I tried searching. No luck. Well guys I am getting the vehicle fixed, that deer caused 6 G's worth of damage. Of course since insurance is paying, its okay. Well I decided not to go with a carbon hood, just stock, but I am inquiring about a hood scoop. I have seen some toyota camrys with 4-Runner scoops on the net, looking pretty good. Anyways, I am wondering if anyone has any input.

Thanks.

Not my cup of tea, especially if it's not going to be functional.

i would not get a scoop, but i would get a vent. cooling the engine more efficiently is always good.

where could you get one to custom fit onto our hoods?? (the vents)

why would you want the scoop...except for cosmetics? the wrx has a top mounted intercooler so it makes sense to have one...the side vent would be more useful...

[Mole]

true... a scoop would not do anything except to create lift. however a reverse scoop (like a funnel) in front of the intake would be beneficial during dry weather.

a vent behind the radiator will def help alleviate heat from the engine bay.

as for a scoop on the side of the car... that may throw off balance?? who knows. are you thinking of a scoop similar to the MR2 except on the side of the intake?

I think i kinda mentioned i like the CS/RC version (vents). If i go anything to my hood, its going to be the CS conversion - i got some info. from the 5sfe guys celica guys who did the cs conversion..and they have a undercover for their scoops when it rains.
