has anyone heard anything on the K&N Typhoon short RAM:

http://www.mazdatrix.com/8intake.htm
How does this compare to rotary extreme's "cold air" intake found here:

Do you know of any better RAM airs/cold air intakes?
Thanks

Does anyone know how hard it is to install/remove the rotary extreme cold air
kit and install/remove the stock air flow kit? The reason I ask is I plan to swap
the two air intakes every time I bring the vehicle in for scheduled maintanence.
I don't want to risk the dealer voiding my warranty!

How about the Tornado? Any comments on this device. Is it a scam. Will it interfere
with the air flow sensor?

I havent heard a typhoon yet, but I personally think it's ugly and kinda ridiculous looking. The RE intake sounds very nice when going WOT (gets real loud, real fast too).
I posted some clips in this section a few days back with a RE intake clip (kinda dark, but sound is what ya want). Just look a little farther down the post list.
