The sound is different with the Typhoons of course so if that is what you like, go for them. The cost is a bit cheaper with the drop ins and tubes of course.
Thanks that helps. i was wondering about that. Was hard to find a dyno with just K&N drop-in's. I was also concerned about the tubes if they build up heat really bad vs hp gains. and if it was worth it. Although the stillien Gen 3s seem like a good option. but bloody expensive for maybe 4 more hp over the drop ins.
