K&N typhoon for cooper

[sleepyrascal]

is this any good? Anyone tried it?

Saw one new for £155... Is this expensive or cheap.

Worth the money? Any alternative?

Cheers

Sleepy dont know what its like on the Cooper but I have one on my S and love it. Got mine from FasterFilters (http://www.fasterfilters.co.uk) - website is cr*p but email them and they will give a price. They also sell on ebay - but will sell slightly cheaper direct. When I got mine they were over 100 quid cheaper than anyone else for the S version.

Mart - did the typhoon make any diff to your S before you did the MTB Mod?

[MartinSullivan]

Not convinced it made any major difference performance wise - but it sure sounded nice :D

I didi try there and his price was good. He sells on ebay for £155 which is £15 LESS THAN RRP

Sorry, but i don't believe the claims for BHP increase, BBR, Hartge, GGR and even the mighty John Cooper Works do not replace the induction kit, all, as far as i can tell replace the element only, circa £35

But on the other hand, if it's the sound you're looking for :cool:
