i just recently finished an install of my K&N Typhoon cold air intake system on my 8. My question is after i was finished...i started the car up and the "lost traction" light stays on and the DSC light keeps blinking.. what did i miss???

 

Try the DSC reset, its in the manual or this post

wow...just went outside to try that and it worked...thanks!

 

did you disconnect the battery during the install?

 

follow Expo's advice, it's how to fix it.

 

did you install the version 1 or version 2?

 

i'm not sure what version it is. It saids series 69 Typhoon system. Product number is 69-1030-1tfk. Its not really any louder at idle but at 7000-9000 rpms its pretty damn loud. It vibrates the inside of the cabin. Its loud enough for me where i just bought and i'm thinking of selling it.

 

Is it a round intake, or a giant filter the size of the old airbox?

 

That model number is the Version 2.

I dont have any vibrates, are you sure u install it right ?

Blame the installer, not the product.

 

i'm not blaming the product.. i was just commenting that at WOT its loud enough where it sounds like its vibrating the dash...kinda of a deep tone but still loud.

and yes... it is the round filter

 

You should've do your homework before you buy anything.

Out of all the aftermarket intake, K&N is the loudest (imo)

If you want something quiet, you should've stay stock, or get RacingBeat intake.

 

i got the typhoon on both my 6 and my 8 love them both.

 

I just bought one on this forum and i cant wait to install this thursday

 

My car sounds like Im running a set of open throttle bodies (at WOT).

 

i love my typhoon...
i'll be installing the rb ram air duct this saturday...
i'll post the results...

 

Hit me up if you decide to sell. I'm in the market. Thanks.

 

well i put about 80 miles on my typhoon and already took it off. Probably trading in the car.... let me know if anyone is interested.

 

Thats the whole point of this intake.

 

I just installed mine today too...and damn its ****** loud when over 5OOOrpm.. i have that vibrating dash feeling too and my ears damn...hehe...but after all...first i was a bit dissapointed...but after,when i let my bro drive my car and i heard my car when stand outside...WAW awesome sound...i love it. the intake is combinated with a HKS legamax.

 

i have the TurboXS exhaust, so i cant hear my intake anyway!

Its totally drowned out by the exhaust!

 

Post it in the for sale forum.
