Judging from the pics its not. Looks to just be coccinea. Take a picture of the top side of the leaves so I can tell for sure.
The leaves do not look variegated, as scarlet splash's leaves are, and the pitchers seem too bulbous
And now that look at it closer, your clone seems to have a problem forming the operculum, which is certainly not a trait of scarlet splash

I agree, but these Victorian bottle-gourd hybrids are very similar.

I think he was agreeing with you.
Coccinea is the only nepenthes I never liked. Except for Lowii, that plant is just grotesque.

coccinea has its uses...it was the first Nep I ever grew, and I'll never forget the absolute thrill watching it grow from a little plug till it literally climbed out of a 10-gallon aquarium. I still have it for nostalgic purposes.

lol have you noticed i haven't gotten one name right? however, to say something on my behalf, some pictures in the photo finder for totally different plants (at least for the untrained eye) are filed under the same species so maybe i've picked wrong names because of this reason.

Yeah there are some errors in the photo finder which I occasionally find. I remember a while ago there were clearly 3 different plants all under "sp. #2 Sumatra". I'm notoriously bad at guessing hybrids, so I can't tell you exactly what it is, but I can always tell someone what its not

If you read the opening page in the CP Photo Finder, you will find this disclaimer:
The identity of the plant is that which the owners of the photo have posted at their Web site. . . . Also, if a plant is clearly misidentified, let the owner know, with a cc to me. I will add a note to the list stating that the identity is possibly incorrect ...
