increased HP, lost gas mileage for 08 honda civic

"Installation is a little tricky on my new 08 Honda Civic, 5 speeds. gained a little HP above 3000RPM. lost gas mileage (lost approx 3 miles per gallon). Engine sounds great. If you are buying this for your 08 honda civic, hope to save gas mileage, DON't BUY THIS. Buy the air filter and use your stock airbox. I wish I could return this air intake. The ads said this air intake should save gas, not loosing gas mileage."

"I replaced my AEM air ram intake on the car with the K & N Typhoon due to ground clearance issues in winter. The take off is more crisp, and the engine growl is noticeably more aggressive even with the factory installed exhaust. Gas mileage remained the same...over 30 miles per gallon when I don't get on it. I intend to upgrade the exhaust and I believe I will realize the full potential of the intake."

Typhoon Intake Review

Posted on 02/01/2008 by Scott J. - 2008 Chevy Equinox (Lisbon,IA)

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.

"I purchased the K&N 69 Series Typhoon Intake for my 2006 Pontiac G6 GTP with a 3.9L V6. The materials are high quality except for the edge trim which has to be trimmed and is a little difficult to install correctly. The intake provides a very nice sound and noticeably improved throttle response and midrange power. With it being January in Iowa, I haven't been able to really test out the high RPM power to see if there is much of an increase, but the car responds much better during all driving conditions I have encountered during the two weeks the intake has been on. The only reason I didn't rate this product 5 stars, is because the heat shield and edge trim do not completely block off the hot engine-bay air. They do help keep some of the heat off of the filter. I will probably make something to attach to the box to help seal off the filter from warm air."

"I have noticed a difference in throttle response since the instal. Very mean sounding, but sounds stock if you baby the throttle. One downside is that I'm tempted to drive the car harder, thus mgp has seemed to drop. Overall happy with my order. K&N is the one to go with."

Awesome air intake!

"I purchased this air intake a few weeks ago, and I absolutely love it! I have it configured as a short ram presently, and I have no plans to do the full install. I really like that I have the option to install the additional pipe at a later time, though! As for the sound, it gives my Mazda 6S tons of gruff! I must admit, I haven't had my stereo turned on for the past few weeks since the sound of my car is so appealing. Dead serious! You can definitely notice more pep while driving, and contrary to some claims, I've yet to get a "check engine light" error! I should also mention that the biggest reason I purchased this air intake is that I knew I wanted a short ram, and this is the ONLY ONE that will fit my car; the only other one that comes close is the AEM short ram, but I spoke to AEM directly, and they confirmed that their short ram intake will NOT work with a manual transmission '03 Mazda 6S. Regardless, I'm glad that I purchased the K&N intake, and I'm sure I would've missed out had I purchased anything else! The only complaint I have is that the included directions were a little unclear. They include step-by-step pictures, but the actual printing quality is pretty low. I'd recommend downloading the .pdf installation instructions for your car directly from the K&N website."

"Good directions to install. Took me about 2 hours due to being nitpicky about cleaning throttle body and under old air cleaner prior to install. After install I started the engine and everything sounded the same. I took the car for a drive and pulled away slowly. Still the same quiet sound. What is nice is the sweet sound of performance when you put your foot into it. Great product."

"I purchased this for my son's car. He has a 2005 Mazda 3, 5-speed hathback. Had it professionally installed so can't comment on the installation, but you can definetly tell a difference. You can actually hear it sucking in air, makes his exhaust sound deeper too!. Not sure about the gas mileage yet, but feels like it has more horse power especially between 2nd, 3rd & 4th gears."

"I bought this because I busted the tabs on my stock air filter box ($150 from dealer) and I wanted to run a K&N filter anyway. It actually does increase power and I'm up a couple MPG's to boot. I didn't go with the cold setup and use it as a short intake due to Ohio's inclimate weather.."

"It was extremely easy to install. I spent more time looking for my tools than actually installing it which was only about 35 minutes. I wanted to use only the short ram instead of the longer extension and I immediately noticed a deeper noise. I dont know if its because Im using the shorter tube and it cant breathe the cold air from the bottom, but I dont notice a big power difference. There is some, but very minimal."
