I HAVE A xr6 ba mk2. no issues so far but I thought I will install a transcooler as I drive long distances (last 3 drives -10,000 kms).also are typhoon injectors higher load rating than standard xr6t injectors?whats the differnce in terms of performance between the typhhon 2nd snorkel mod and after market full airbox replacement? there is a very big price difference in this mod. cheers Maddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think you need a tranny cooler if your only doing long drives, its more to cope with the extra heat the tranny is under when pushing more power thru it. But installing one isn't a bad thing anyway.The injectors are the same I'm fairly sure.The difference is that the 2nd intake is way cheaper. The full air box systems usually require the battery to be relocated to the other side of the engine bay which again adds to the cost. You could get a BPR intake which sits in the factory position but is an air box with a pod, and I have heard it works really well. It too is fairly expensive but its an easier option. Performance wise, if you have a shorter intake, turbo spools up quicker, making power earlier. I'd just get it for the sound they make, so the air box wins..
