Hey guys, as some of you may know I mentioned that my intake manifold O Rings were spitting out antifreeze so I planned on doing an Intake Manifold in the summer (I stopped the leak with Stop Leak lol)
So I was looking at the Typhoon Intake from Professional Products, its $550 for the Satin trim. It says it makes about 25 more HP at like 6,500 which obviously GT's dont hit that. But on an article I read, someone had a Roush with Cams and got like +5hp at 5200 and + 9hp at 5,400 thats where I shift at the strip. So in your opinion is it worth $550 for the Typhoon Intake? Remember that was with cams aswell so maybe Id see like +6hp at 5,400. It also loses like 1 or 2 horses between 4,800 and 5,000. Does anyone else make a better Intake for the 2V's? Thanks for the help guys.

Unless you plan on shooting a big nitrous shot or boosting more than 12psi, no, it's not worth the money. You can make more power with a PI replacement and upgrade your cams.

I have it installed on my turbo Saleen but I was not able to see the performance gain because I did a-lot of other things at the same time (turbo). For the money it def. makes people turn their heads and take a look. Me personally I think it really turns around the look of the engine bay.
Yea it says "Dyno Proven" Probally a FI car to add 25 more HP at 6,500 rpm...Well thats useless for the 2V's because I would never spin my car up that high lol. Maybe Ill just save up for a Bullitt Intake or something because if Im going to lose HP then screw that lol

yeah man that's gonna be a ton of saving for that bullitt intake, haha. if you type out the name of the manifold on google it pulls up a ton of articles about how bad the thing is. go figure. but HPS has a manifold but they won't put any numbers and i can't find any people who have used it heres the link.
well i have one and i like it. it looks nice although didnt notice much diff other than it made my CIA whistle like a turbo lol. i only bought it because i got a great deal and it was ported and polished..

when i put my upper plenum and TB, my car does the same thing. haha
I guess the runners on the intake are probably smalle than the ford. I replace my 2000 gt with a dorman intake (usually sells at checkers auto) and I did notice the holes on the intakes were a little smaller I guess i lost 10 to 20 hp on the test. next week replace it with a the updated ford intake and was back like it used to be.
save up and get the p51. my personal opinion is when you upgrade, get the best so that you never have to re visit.

Next summer looking to go with:
Bilstien shocks + struts, Lowering springs (brand still TBD (any suggestions?)), MM CC plates, front + rear sway bars, subframes, and upper and lower control arms.
Time to make the pony ride some rails
I have the intake for price to power it's not worth a fu$& I think trick flow or edlebrooke just made a new one that's supposed to flow like double the amount of air. Besides that unless ur doing sum major mods I wouldn't worry about the intake
Need Help..Is the Typhoon Intake worth it?
