It is a custom jobbie made by myself, but I am going to get some reproduced in the near future.

Maybe a group buy could be set up to see how much interest there is out there before I decide how many to get made.....

Do you have an ACT gauge fitted? Or an underbonnet temperature gauge? If not, how do you KNOW you have had no problems with temperatures?

no i dont have an underbonnet temp gauge,but i do have an oil temp+water temp and if both of them are reading normal then thats good enough for me.obviously when its a really hot summers day i get the boost gauge reading a little lower but thats pretty normal anyway as it used to do it on my other car with the proper scoop fitted.just out of interest though if someone wants to lend me an sti8 scoop then i will buy a temp gauge and fit it under the bonnet,so that a back to back test of both the scoops can be done.it will be interesting to see if there is a difference in the two.

Had a good look at your reverse scoop today at scooby shootout. Looks very nice indeed. Any news on these being produced in the future, or could you pm me a price for one as a one off if nessesary.

I am looking into getting these produced at the moment, but may take a short while to get them sorted.

I will update this thread and also put a thread up myself as and when they are in production...
