Default StI8 scoop on a classic?

Anybody put a replica STI 8 scoop on a classic 97- 2000?

any pros and cons would be nice?

and any good dealers doing such a scoop?

Cheers,

Plums...

Default newage scoop

i dont know the exact reason for my opinion but they never quite look right. it may be because the classic is alot sleeker at the front than a newage which is a bit stocky but suits the larger scoop. also the replicas do look like copies and never look as good as originals.
plus they slow you down above 150 anyway
dont bother, spend your hard earned elsewhere.

I think the Blobeye STi scoop looks too big on the classic bonnet, maybe go for the Bugeye STi scoop, not as big. Just my opinion of course

I was thinking about getting one, then totally went off them, i think for both looks and improved airflow to the "interwarmer" you'd be better off going for the larger original rep, would look more agressive and at the same time not looking stupid.
