CA The FC Hood Scoop

I have a question about the hood scoop, already checked the FAQ's so yeah.
What models of the fcs have the hood scoops? Is it only the turbos?and they do make a 89-91 fc with the hood scoop right?

Please reply, will be appreciated.

Only the turboII models had the hood scoop come as stock. The scoop was there to get air into the stock intercooler and since the N/A models didn't have an intercooler, it wasn't there.

Some people put TurboII hoods on their N/A fc's for the looks though.

All TIIs, regardless of year, have a hood scoop for the intercooler.
