You don't want the problems associated with intakes on these cars? But you're gonna do a drop in? That makes little sense. The problems people have had mainly relate to throwing CEL's because the oil on the filter gunks up the MAF sensor. But that is few and far between. So a drop in will cause the same problem potentially. Others have problems with the Typhoon because they have a leak somewhere because of the initial installation. I have the Typhoon, have had for 18 months with NO problems. I'm not the only one. The people with problems are the minority. It doesn't hamper the cars performance generally either. They just throw a light and it either goes away on its own or they have to clean the MAF sensor. No big deal. The big plus to a Typhoon is the bitchin' cool whine it allows the supercharger to do.

The oil is part of it, but there's also 2 other issues. One, is the fact that it just throws a CEL on 75% of the cars, which some people just find annoying as all hell. Next, is the fact that it comes apart if not installed just perfect, this can also be a real hazard, not just an annoyance.

The whine is too cool though...

I'm getting better gas mileage with the drop in to the tune of 25-50 miles per tank

ive seen a lot of ppl that have installed it wrong and the 2 tubes have separated, which i can totally understand. it's hard as hell connecting the 2nd tube to the first tube, and even harder to tighten it down due to not a lot of room to work with
