Has anyone bought and installed one? They are asking about $360 for it has anyone gotten a better price? Are they as good as the AEM??

 

Do you have a pic that shows a photo of it? Would this be what they call an "FIPK"? I've always been a fan of K&N and I've had FIPK's on previous cars. They seem to work very well. Although the AEM is tough to beat in terms of performance gains, I think an FIPK would come close and it would be a simpler install.

 

xviper I know the system is called Typhoon and seems to come in 2 different sizes?? What the difference between the 2 is I do not know , I wish someone had one and could give me some info , I think they may be to new, but from what I heard they are supposed to be great?

 

One is standard: http://www.knfilters.com/images/typhoon/69-1041TS.jpg

One is Cold Air: http://www.knfilters.com/images/typhoon/69-1040TS.jpg

Both look like every other AEM type.

Which do you think is better, AEM or PRM? I am considering going with a cold air, and have looked at the Mugen, but find the cost a little .

Does Mugen offer any advantage over the others, with or without their fromt bumper with intake?

If I wait and add a SC, does its kit come with a cold air intake?

 

Hey guys - My S was a part of the R&D process for the 2000 MY. From what I saw, unfortunately they didn't give me a print out, the car gained 10 horsepower. I don't know if they were blowing $h|+ up my a$$ but I saw the numbers on the dyno computer. Seat of the pants dyno says that 10 seems about right. I'm no expert so take it for what it's worth.

K&N has been around the intake business for a long time. It may be more expensive but as far as I can tell, it's worth the extra $$'s. They also have a screen or mask included with the kit, called a drycharger. Basically, it keeps water from entering the intake. It can't block a flow of water but any mist or spray can be kept out. I'll try to get some pics up for you to check out later tonite.

The difference between the 2 filters is that one is a cold air and the other is not. 1040TS is the cold air.

If it looks like either one of these, then you are better off with the AEM.

 

Does the short one (not ram cold air) give any HP increase?? or is the longer ram the only one that gives some?? Also does the short one not get Hydro Lock???
