Definately not for the faint hearted, and should really only be necessary if you are doing alot of Drag Racing.

I would not recommend doing it to a typhoon, buy a xt and do it to that.

I remember you mentioning something about them last time we spoke. The boy's would've recommended them, as I remember a few year's back Spiro was getting some rear end stuff done for his 10 second machine through them.
