only problem i have heard with the K&N typhoon is the rubber joint that connects it, as it has been said that it can 'suck' inwards on the sides of the joint. if you look at it youll see what i mean

 

well i think that since no body has the mopar cold air that i should get the mopar cai.. also colder air i think does increase boost..

 

well I got the typhoon and yes...it sucks inward...that why I wanna get rid of it.Looking forward to an AEM cai

 

if i were to get a new intake, i would probably get the mopar cai. then just thrown the typhoon on for crappy weather season

 

Cold Air = Less Boost [sm=deadhorse.gif]

 

^hmm, are you talking about cold air being more dense and therefore containing more O^2 per in^3

 

Thank you, I've been trying to say that the whole time!

Isn't the Mopar CAI practically an AEM CAI with another $100 or so added to the price?

 

WOW flaming!!!!!!!! we agree on the MOPAR!

 

Cold air is more dense, therefore you don't need as much boost to make the same amount of power... the ecu compensates.

 

True.

If the joint is sucking partially shut then it's not receiving the full amount of air that it should and this could be the reason for an increase in boost, it's compensating for the reduction in air flow by increasing the boost.

If you already have the Typhoon CAI why replace it with another when all you need to do is replace the thin rubber elbow. I simply bought a mandrel bent 90 degree stainless steel pipe to solve the possible chance of the hose collapsing, I still need to cut it down and install it though. I always had the thought in the back of my mind that the thin elbow could or would suck partially shut during peak boost on the Typhoon when I first got mine and saw that weak link. I would just like to know why they didn't use the same material as what it has to connect the two pipe sections together, it's firm and far thicker which would eliminate any chances of the suck shut scenario.
