Weapon R SW intake v.s K&N Typhoon

So I find myself torn between ordering a K&n Typhoon intake or ordering the Weapon R Secret Weapon intake. Wondering if I could get some feed back from those of you who have owned or own either of these. I'm mosty concerned with maintainence, quality, and overall which will be the better buy in the long run. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Again
-Michael

p.s. I'm also open to other options if you have any ideas :]

(incase you need any info about either intake)

69-1017TTK - K&N 69 Series Typhoon Kits, Performance Intake Kit direct from K&N

Weapon-R

You can buy the Injen CAI for cheaper than both. There are several ebay stores that sell it.

Definitely the WR or Injen over the K&N because they are true CAI's, meaning they put the filter outside of the engine bay.

Some people on here say an intake is a waste. I say its not, and it makes the car feel and sound 10 times better. It also seemed to help my MPG slightly. (Maybe 1mpg, but that's fine with me)

air intakes

I have the typhoon for my 07 fit I like it depending on if all you plan on doing to your car is just an air intake I'd say injen or kn they are pricey but are the two I think are best well theres the t1r intake looks nice but it's like 400 I believe. the injen is longer tubing and drops lower to the ground you should probably get a dry cover for rain they have them on andyautosports.com if your looking for cheap eBay's got some idk how good they are though
but it you want a quick one eBay's probably the way.
