Just dont get the typhoon unless you're only going to use it on dry track sessions. You'll suck water into the engine otherwise...

forgive me saying, the name is slighlty ironic?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoon

to the fact it sucks in water when wet.

i would have one... if you could find it abit cheaper then 209 on fleabay...

use it during the summer... makes sense because engine bays can get hot unless you have a CAIS system...

in winter i would probably change it too a standard K&N or invest in a cheaper filter too keep it in the bay

K&N or mountune cais ftw. Forget about the Typhoon I've heard too many stories of it sucking up water and killing engines.
