was thinking of getting one of those scoops for my car, but im unsure would really like to see it in the flesh

Likewise - be good to see a 'whole' car with one on, not just a close up of the bonnet - I'd be interested in seeing the water spray fitted too - Wonder how the 'auto' mode works ?

The waterspray system is just a pressure switch wired into a pump! When a certain boost pressure is reached, the switch triggers the pump, to spray the water. It looks like it operated by an STI dash switch. Did the same on my car for less than £40!

johnny, i've just had a look in members gallery http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=317700

i can't believe all the negative comments, the whole car looks really smart, if you parked beside any of the whingers they would all say "great looking car" but when its on here they've got to twist their faces

the scoop looks great, it certainly doesn't look out of place, keep up the good work DD

Johnny sti

Thank you very much DD
It does seem weird that so many people have asked about fitting the scoop to a classic, the views back it up(over 350)!! Yet there are many people ready to knock it.
Thanks to everyone who has commented on the car, it is very much appreciated as i had doubts about doing it, especially after viewing some of the replys!

Thanks again everyone

take no notice of negative replies if you like what you have done i personally dont like rally graphics but how many peeps post how much they love em in the members gallery its all personal preference and if you think yours is mint thats all that counts remeber a nice side on shot in the gallery or in here

Telling me. Dont like graphics at all. But each to your own.
Had to think twice about putting some sti badges on the wing Very fussy and really dont want the car to look tatty!

Pics will be sent to you tomorrow. Anyone else want any better/closer ones.
Please state what kind.

I dont have a steady hand
You should try and live with the Doreen!!

First time I have seen the big scoop on a classic, as has been said, it doesn't look out of place. Nice one Johnny sti a) for doing it nicely and b) for having the bottle to do it

Johnny sti

Thanks mate
Should be getting some better pics of it later on.

as i said in member's gallery "FOOOOOOOOOKing great" top job

johnny how much over the intercooler hole does the scoop fit,
i only ask because people want the sti 8 to fit the pre face lift bonnets, but they want them to fit the original hole, so if some think yours is too (whatever?) whats a sti8 scoop to fit the original hole going to look like

Johnny sti

Hi DD
Mine totally covers the hole. If you wanted to, you can cut the bonnet to allow more air in, but mine is done because i like the style. Also, as i still have the standard ic, i saw no real reason to cut it in due to the poss of having the cold air mix with hot engine heat because, to enlarge the scoop hole, you would remove the rubber/plastic seal that guides the air from the duct into the ic.
I know nothing about this stuff but assume it would happen with lateral thinking!

Scoobybits

looks good mate if ya ask me..been thinkin of doin the same ,seem to be a few companies supplying where is yours from?

Higgs

got one of the milsport scoops for the facelift bonnet today and they are big about twice size as the standerd scoop went to pick it up and hehas one on his demo car looks good to on the car and when u sit in the car it looks huge
