I have a seibon scoot style hood. Due to the center bulging out, it allows the same clearance as the stocker.

Most important before you purchase from chaser, read up about how well they fit.

The seibon scoot hood is different from the real scoot style hood.
I have yet to find anyone else offering a scoot replica besides all the ebay hoods

VIS and Seibon. VIS is more agressive, steeper vents.

And the only thing im worried about is if the vents will hit the turbo or not. Thats why i need someone with this hood to help give me measurements.

Yes but both BULGE OUT therefore my point still stands. The scoot vis who is more aggressive bulges out more than the seibon.

I think Herblenny has one of them. He'd probably measure for you. Also try muibubbles, I think he's got the chaser version.

Remember it can be sanded down if it doesn't clear.. That's what my plan is at least.

I think I can help. I own a scoot hood with a 20B. If I recall correctly I beleive it is a chaser model (it came with the car) everything clears fine except I have the R1 strut so a hole had to be cut out the center portion of the hood so that it clears the strut bar. Other than that. I think we're it becomes a problem is how high your turbo is and maybe if it is too forward and the IC piping is too high it might come close. I'll take pictures and post them for you

As you can see from The pictures that I am posting there is a stock R1 strut bar installed in the stock position. So I cut pictures scared up on it on every angle so it gives you a good point of reference as well as compared to the actual strut, where everything is positioned. I hope it helps:

Interesting...

The seibon does not have that thick center are allowing more clearance. I have also seen what I thought was a ViS style scoot hood with the steeper vents (but who knows anymore with so many repros) that didn't have that center passage either and therefore allowing clearance. But oh well you were worried about the vents anyway.
