Can someone clear this up, ive heard off mates, that induction do not do anything for power, it is purely there for noise and on some cars it even lowers the bhp. and with some companies claiming 3-5 bhp increase, who do you believe???

i was looking at the KnN typhoon, is it really worth it?

I would say those company's cant claim something which is based on fantasy's? So 3 to 5 bhp increase, who knows, as long as it increases instead of decreases!

I'm still using the stock filter, but would prefer the Viper above any other filter... Simply based on the way it looks, is constructed, the venturi-thing...

The main use for an induction kit is the noise anyway!
