Well I got this TTA a few weeks ago,needs some work but its worthy of it. so it begins,ill post pics has its happining..heres the worst part
I took the seats out, Sent them to get redone, had the interior steam cleaned, seats should be done soon..
next problem..the hood wont close proper..looks like the upgraded 3 inch pipes hit the skeleton of the hood..notice the gap
Ok,so here the question..Ive had a steath ram intake on a GTA before,and I know I can cut the skeleton of the hood to get it to close proper..I had to do it on my stealth ram car.. this car has been modified with a larger intercooler has you see the cut out section with the intercooler popping out..maybe the previous owner liked the hood being propped up to feed it cool air?..Idk,But i need to find a visually appealing solution.
Notice the intercooler,under hood latch.
So,here my thoughts..Its a good set up,it runs hard..What If i Do a ram air hood? Like pollymotorsport,His car is beast,and Honestly,I like that hood on His car.
But,Im a true Car guy,And have a conflict with modding a 89 TTA..however This TTA is already modded,and the hood is not original..So I really wouldnt be degrading the car,and I think I can make it funtional,to the point of ramming fresh air into the intercooler..Idk what to do yet,but I am set on a fiber glass rear wing.
