Yeah something like that I would go for, only without the side vents and the reverse scoop being a little less agressively styled.

SSU,
I can honestly say that the FMIC has made no difference to the oil/water temps on mine, so no increased "slamming" noticed.

P.S. £7K for bug-eye CF doors.... but no front wings

Uprated rad would produce that affect as I'm sure you're well aware of. I expected lower temps when fitting my FMIC but oil and coolant stayed approximately the same.

I feel a nice 3 core SARD Spec C edition rad coming on!

Far too much to justify purchasing one now with the current Pound/Yen exchange rate.

Just checked out of curiosity though, just over £1000 from rhdjapan, and that's withs out shipping.

Before the big recession I think they were around half that.

2. I think £340 for a reverse scoop is alot of money. You can get a full carbon bonet for a few squid more, with the scoop built in !

Craig.

im in thr process of butchering up my facelift scoop to make a reverse scoop. Up till now, all its cost me to do it is some bonding adhesive, fibre glass, body filler and my time. copied a design off ebay a bit but customised it at the same time. tried it on unfinished to see if i was wasting my time and o be fair it looks v.good! cheap alternative to buying and a your left with a story to tell and advice to share!
