I have just removed mine as the standard air box is good to 350-360 bhp I believe, I've just removed my typhoon for a cosworth panel filter. The typhoon does sound very nice, plenty of incabin turbo noice and you can hear the dump from the recirc valve. A remap is necessary however for best results.
