god damn, am i the only useful person on this forum?
It's my belief that souls hood is custom, he has juts a reversed TII hood scoop.
There is a Border cowl hood scoop, and a Panspeed, and some other, try contacting rxecret.com or Jason (rx7store.net) to see if they can get the Border hood, or talk to soul or Dragon about the Panspeed hood, it's gonna be expensive no matter what.
And Greg, you could always go the japanese way, just put some spacers (maybe get an aluminum or SS block drilled) between where the back of the hood mounts to the frame. just get it so its raised about 3/4". Have yourself a giant $2 cowl hood.

Dude calm down, seems like you'll have to get a person in Japan to buy one and ship to you because I don't know of any American shops that import the Panspeed kit. Here is yet another reverser:

If I can find the manufacture then I can find out where to get them and for how much but noone seems to know who makes it. If anyone knows the manufacture please share. The one I am interested in is the one on the blue and yellow RE FC. Not the panspeed, although the panspeed is also nice

So, if the rx7.com adapter is to be used then you will be blowin hot air straight into the intercooler? No way I will install that with a factory intercooler... Plus the TII hood scoop is part of the hood not a bolt on scoop, so that talk about rotating it is out of the question also...

Um, putting a, um, larger engine under the hood of an FC with one of those aftermarket hoods may be out of the question without a custom upper intake manifold, and possibly modifying the lower intake a bit....
