you searched for an 06, K&N has not received a C.A.R.B EO on the 06 yet, so they do not list it. if you search for an 03-05, it comes up
Yeah, done deal. I read somewhere that one of these guys came up with some work around, no way is it worth it in production for us. But just for curiosity's sake I wanted to see what that was.

Sorry I did not get back to you sooner
To fix the K & N Typhoon simply cut off the flap which in inside the tube which goes from the MAF to the turbo near the BOV return
You can simply hit the outside of the pipe with a cut off wheel and then reweld or you can knock out the flap from the inisde
Itw ill then work like any other intake and will needa retune if it was tuned previously with the flap
Let me know if you have any other questions

Modified my "Typhoon" POS
Bring it back! Sorry, but it appears the hundreds of posts on this "typhoon" have been deleted. I've read K&N had something to do with deleting posts. How is that possible?
Anyhow, I bought my car a few years ago with the K&N typhoon already installed
. I didn't know it was a liability until recently or I just forgot. So I decided to modify it by removing the flap/restriction that is by the BOV pipe.
My questions are:
1. Is this a temporary fix or will this be pretty close to most of the intakes out there?
2. Where do I start with tuning for this mod? MAF scaling, injector scaling, etc?
BTW, I've read a bunch of posts by Warrtalon and others on this intake, but I'm sure a lot of good info have been deleted
